“We have all dreamed of doing such a thing.”

I once had a semi trailer full of Miller High Life given to me and about 6 friends from work.

Its a long story but it was legal and paid for by an automotive company as a bonus gift to the aprox 500 employees of a supplier plant I worked at.

The deal was only a couple of us showed up for the fully paid party ( At MIS speedway) and the driver said it was paid for and he had to leave it there. We were told to take it all.

The bad part was I drove a car and could only carry 25 cases home!
