Description: An event was staged based around the insight that taking an aspirin can help increase the chance of survival in a heart attack. For aspirin to work in cases wherein it can help someone manage a heart attack, some body has to be carrying one. This problem was decided to be tackled by getting people with the common last name of Smith to arm themselves with Bayer aspirin. It chose Fort Smith, Arkansas not just for the connection to the name, but because it has one of the highest heart attack rates in the country.
