Pert Plus Builds Shower for 150 People in Chicago
Rose Nazarali — July 28, 2009 — Lifestyle
Shampoo company Pert Plus built a shower large enough to fit 150 people in Gurnee, Chicago in hopes of beating two world records: the largest number of people showering simultaneously and the biggest shower built.
Of course the event was PG-rated with all participants clad in bathing suits while soaping up. The shower seemed more like a water park with kids running around and cooling off on what looked like a hot summer’s day.
“We built quite a shower and we hope that these records will stand the test of time,” said a spokesperson for Pert Plus. They have yet to confirm if they beat their world records.
