Free Dr Pepper for everyone

[crzyjournalist03]

As a result of a promise made earlier in the year, since Guns 'N Roses is releasing their latest album this week, Dr Pepper is offering everybody in America a free Dr Pepper...I've been trying to register, but the site is a little slow, probably due to the number of people attempting to sign up.

They've added a toll-free number to help avoid internet issues:

1-888-DRPEPPER

That kind of explains it...back in March, Dr Pepper said that if the album was released in 2008, they'd give everybody in America a free Dr Pepper...basically, the CEOs and such said they were huge fans of the band and were tired of waiting and wanted to give America and the band an incentive to get the album out.

Most likely it was a publicity stunt turned bad for Dr Pepper since it was such a longshot that the album would actually be released.
