To get streetwear fans excited about the release of its newest products, Antisocial Social Club announced that it would be launching a [pop-up shop](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mans-best-friend-popup) somewhere in Los Angeles. Adding to a consumer's fear of missing out on visiting the ultra-exclusive temporary store with limited-edition items was the fact that Antisocial Social Club chose to hold off on revealing the location of the site.

However, the brand decided to give consumers a clue by posting mysterious billboards throughout the city with a phone number to call.

At the pop-up event, users who downloaded the Frenzy app from [Shopify](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glossier-and-shop) were able to snag a [limited-edition sweatshirt](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anti-social-social-club-1), which was only available to purchase via the app at the designated time and location that the physical shop was opened.
