Argentine club’s ‘boob raffle’ causes row
The owner of the club apologizes, saying he had planned to write the winner a check equivalent to the cost of the operation, not pay for her surgery directly

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina – An Argentine nightclub that advertised a raffle for free breast implants has fallen foul of the country’s authorities.

The club, Hibrido, tried to organize a “sorteo de lolas” (boob raffle) for December 13 but called it off under pressure from Argentina’s National Institute Against Discrimination, Xenophobia and Racism (INADI).

The owner of the club in the southern Patagonia region apologized, saying he had planned to write the winner a check equivalent to the cost of the operation – between 25,000 and 30,000 pesos ($2,900 to $3,500) – not pay for her surgery directly.

Cosmetic surgery is popular in the South American country, where surgical breast and buttocks augmentations increased by 500% from 2009 to 2013, according to the Argentine Congress of Aesthetic Medicine Specialists. – Rappler.com
