My friend India just sent me this Ebay link pleading for someone to please spend their life savings on a phone number. It's one of the last working U.S. telephone numbers with the digits 867-5309 made famous by Tommy Tutuone's 1982 hit "Jenny". Allegedly, the digits originally belonged to a girl named Jenny who gave them to lead singer Tommy Heath to pass along to his lead guitarist, Jim Keller. Heath wrote the number on a bathroom wall, and Keller penned the song.
What's up for grabs here folks is a chance to own a legendary prank phone number that works anywhere in the U.S. and receives 8,000 - 10,000 calls per year. It's currently up for bid at $365,700.
What's the delay, Recessionistas? Break out your wallets!
