what the doctor ordered

In an attempt to find out where the name 'Dr. Pepper' started, I came across this tidbit on Wikipedia....

"in a unique marketing strategy, Dr. Pepper have reportedly entered a dare of sorts between themselves and Guns N' Roses front man Axl Rose. They have stated that if Axl Rose manages to release his new album, Chinese Democracy, in 2008, they will give everyone in America a free Dr. Pepper except for former Guns N' Roses guitarists Slash and Buckethead. Chinese Democracy, which has been in the works for seventeen years, has since been dated for November 23, 2008. They will keep up their end of the bargain by offering coupons on their website for 24 hours on the date of release."
