So 90 winners and friends arrived at Dublin airport at 4pm, hung over to hell because everyone was out late celebrating their good fortune. No one could believe including myself that this was really happening and we laughed hysterically, one winner pledged to call his first born 'Miller', a reasonable request, he felt, given the prize.
The trip bore
'Legends and Casualties', 8 winners were lost before we left Dublin airport with 2 arriving in London, Oops! Luggage was a scream, there were girlie cases, Tescos bags and even singular toothbrushes. 'Spider-man', so called because he squeezed into a child's pyjama Spider-man top, and pal were permanently
'sozzled', falling over and arguing in a slapstick fashion. We raved until dawn, had a drunken pool party and
sessioned all night, all ending with a drunken exit from Dublin airport on Sunday evening.

Those crazy promotional exec's at Miller, paid for flight tickets, transfers, accommodation with dinner, breakfast and lunch, Miller cans on the flight and at meal times, vouchers for bar drinks and entry to Es Paradis nightclub. The thing was that no one would choose a Miller beer but couldn't refuse free beer and an excellent prize.
