Let me start by saying that if you read this far I applaud you. This strip was written by me, which is kind of funny because I rag on Greg so much for writing long ones and this is probably one of the longest we have had in a while. The idea came to me upon seeing the actual contest and imagining myself losing out on prizes because of my need for dr. pepper. Honestly the grand prizes are kind of lame. I mean i'd rather have the secondary dr. pepper for a year prize, I could probably make them go broke with how much dr. pepper I could drink. It is the nectar of the gods after all. If anyone from dr. pepper is reading this strip, i have a jingle that goes with the slogan if you ever want an ad campaign that would destroy the competition. Yet I digress... check back in a few weeks for a new strip in which we'll go back to our 4 panel configuration and super lame jokes for a bit.
