Does Dialing 867-5309 Make You Want to Work Out?
- 867-5309 (via youtube)
The 80s-themed fitness chain, Retrofitness, recently acquired the rights to the famous 80s phone number, 867-5309, for an undisclosed sum. Their plan is for Gen-Xers across the country to feel fuzzy nostalgia as they dial up the gym's number, formerly belonging to Jenny in the Tommy Tutones hit, and then of course for them to flock to the retro gym in droves. Kind of funny. Not sure it's funny enough for an "undisclosed sum," but that may be the borderline Gen-Y part of us talking. Also, when was the last time you called your gym? Just saying. Your thoughts, please.
A workout with a side of entertainment/irony does me nicely. Bravo for 867-5309.

Nothing against Sixteen Candles, but a theme party on a daily basis? No thank you.

867-5309? Why is there no area code? Am I supposed to dial on a rotary phone now too? Come on.
