WATCH: Philly ad agency releases 'keep it in your pants' PSA

For Valentine's Day, company reminds you to put your cell phone away

A Philly advertising agency has an important message for those venturing out on dates this Valentine's Day: keep it in your pants.

No, not that -- get your mind out of the gutter. The new PSA from Red Tettemer O'Connell + Partners is referring to your cell phone, of course.

"I've got one, you don't see me whipping out," says one man in the video.

The video is hilarious but it's also a push from the agency to promote itself, according to PhillyMag. The agency's president and chief creative officer, Steve Red, told the magazine that's something ad agencies don't do enough of:

"I think ad agencies are sometimes reluctant to rely on anything other than the work they have out there. But if you can find something insightful and relevant, and think its worth putting a message out to the world, it’s a good thing to do. The more people are talking about us, the better our business does."
