Mattress company apologizes for 'Twin Tower Sale' ad
A mattress store is in hot water over it's 9/11 sale advertising

SAN ANTONIO, TX -- A San Antonio mattress shop was apologizing for what some were calling a very offensive ad about 9/11.

The Miracle Mattress ad was pulled from its Facebook page but continues to live on YouTube.

In the video, three employees are seen spoofing the fall of the World Trade Center towers on September 11, 2001.

The company even called their sale the "Twin Tower sale."

As you can imagine, a lot of people were outraged by the ad.

The store's owners, who are based in Houston, apologized for the ad.

The owner said it was "tasteless and an affront to the men and women who lost their lives on 9/11."
