 In a marketing deal, Walmart will send Pitbull, aka Armando Christian Perez, to the store that gets the most "likes" on its Facebook page. 
 
 Right now, the leading candidate is Kodiak, Alaska. And there might be a reason. 
 
 A writer for The Boston Phoenix newspaper thought it'd be funny to send Pitbull to the most remote Walmart possible, and is encouraging people to "like" the Walmart in Kodiak. 
 
 It seems to be working. 
 
 The Kodiak Walmart had more than 35,000 "likes" Monday, more than five times the town's population. 
 
 Kodiak has a significant lead in the contest to land Pitbull, but actual numbers weren't immediately available, Walmart spokeswoman Sarah Spencer said. 
 
 She says other Walmart shoppers have until July 16 to like their local stores and pull ahead of Kodiak. 
 
 "I know Pitbull is hoping his Miami Walmart shoppers start liking their Facebook page," she said. 
 
 That would require some heavy lifting, with one Miami location sitting tight with 45 "likes" Monday. 
 
 "He's definitely coming to Kodiak if Kodiak wins," she said. 
 
 It would be the rapper's first visit to Alaska. 
 
 Pitbull, who is touring Europe, seems to be taking the contest in good nature. "Wherever the fans want to have a party, I will be there," he said in an emailed statement sent Monday from Austria. 
 
 Kodiak Island is about 225 miles southwest of Anchorage. It's home to the nation's largest Coast Guard base, and the island is known for its Kodiak brown bear population. 
 
 That fact wasn't lost on Pitbull, who tweeted Saturday: "I hear there's bear repellant at Kodiak, Alaska (at)walmartspecials." ||||| Pitbull may be headed to a Walmart on the secluded island of Kodiak, Alaska, reports the Associated Press. 
 
 As part of a marketing deal, Walmart plans to send the reggaeton star to the store that lands the most "likes" on its Facebook page by July 16th. However, David Thorpe, a writer for the Boston Phoenix and the popular humor website SomethingAwful.com, found it entertaining to campaign to send Pitbull to the most isolated store possible by pushing the Kodiak location and rallying the Internet to swarm its Facebook page with "likes." As of today, it had surpassed 35,000 "likes" and spawned a rather successful Twitter campaign called #ExilePitbull. 
 
 For his part, Pitbull remains a good sport, tweeting, "I hear there's bear repellant at Kodiak, Alaska" and adding the #ExilePitbull hashtag. "Wherever the fans want to have a party, I will be there," he added in an emailed statement.
– Pitbull's marketing deal with Walmart may backfire on him: The Miami rapper is getting sent to whichever Walmart store gets the most "likes" on its Facebook page, and right now the store in the lead is in … Kodiak, Alaska, population just north of 6,000. That's because Boston Phoenix writer and SomethingAwful.com founder David Thorpe figured it would be hilarious to get people to purposely like the Kodiak store in order to exile Pitbull to the remote island location, Rolling Stone reports. The Kodiak Walmart had more than 35,000 likes yesterday, and even has its own Twitter campaign: #ExilePitbull. "I know Pitbull is hoping his Miami Walmart shoppers start liking their Facebook page," a rep for the company tells the AP, but they only have until July 16 to vote and it will be an uphill battle: One Miami location had just 45 likes yesterday. The rapper is taking it all in stride, tweeting, "I hear there's bear repellant at Kodiak, Alaska @walmartspecials @sheets #exilepitbull."
