Join the pact and pledge not to drink and drive with Johnnie Walker


What irony eh? Mr. Johnnie Walker asking his fans not to drink and drive! And for that you might find yourself in the company of either Lewis Hamilton or Heikki Kovalainen!!!

How to win?
Just log on to the Johnnie Walker -Join The Pact website, sign and then provide your contact info. It is that simple and I must say the promoter of this competition has been very fair and in the terms and regulations they have even included a "Transfer of prize" clause! That means that you could either (a) Enter on behalf of your friends or loved ones OR (b) Make your friends or loved ones enter the competition and transfer the prize to you when they WIN!!! I particularly like option (b), any volunteers kind enough to enter the competition and give me the prize when you win? I promise I will get you a nice souvenir :D

What's the prize?
So what's exactly included in the prize pool? The prize list in the terms and regulations reads as below:

Grand Prize (One Prize) includes the winner’s name printed on team Vodafone McLaren Mercedes drivers helmet at the Singapore Grand Prix 2009, 2 return flights to Singapore, twin share accommodation, 2 Grandstand tickets, 2 invitations to meet Lewis Hamilton and 2 invitations to the Johnnie Walker Grand Prix party.

Runner Up Prizes (Three Prizes): 2 return flights to Singapore, twin share accommodation, 2 Grandstand tickets, 2 invitations to meet Lewis Hamilton and 2 invitations to the Johnnie Walker Grand Prix party

*“Winner’s name” means the winner’s name printed on both Vodafone McLaren Mercedes F1™ team drivers Lewis Hamilton and Heikki Kovalainen helmet visor at the Singapore Grand Prix 2009. (This is one cool thing that I would like to be noticed for during the Singapore F1 GP! Imagine having your mates rubbing their eyes thinking, "It can't be...?")

*“Grandstand tickets” means grandstand tickets to the 2009 Singapore F1™ Grand Prix on both Saturday, 26 September and Sunday, 27 September 2009. (I don't know how much these would cost but I bet putting a SGD1k price on is a very low figure)

*“Invitation to meet Lewis Hamilton” means an invitation to an exclusive Johnnie Walker event attended by Vodafone McLaren Mercedes F1™ team driver Lewis Hamilton in Singapore on Saturday, 26 September 2009 subject to team and driver availability. Event time to be confirmed directly with winner. (This is surely a once in a lifetime money can't buy opportunity!)
*“Twin share accommodation” means accommodation at a 4-star non-track side hotel room (on a twin share basis) for 3 nights from Friday 25 September 2009 to Monday 28 September 2009 (includes service charges, taxes and airport transfers but excludes any incidentals including but not limited to meals, phone calls, laundry and room service.) (Hmmmm... Why would I need a track side hotel room when I already have the grandstand tickets above???)
*“Flights” means economy class flights from the nearest capital city international airport of the winner’s country including airport taxes. (Since it is free there is nothing much to complain right? A tip, chat up the air steward/ress and see if they would give you an upgrade, promise in return you would get Lewis to sign on a bottle of Johnnie Walker and give it to her in exchange for the upgrade! Would it work? Never try never know right???)
CAUTION!!!

*Residents of all other eligible countries: The winners will be subjected to any restrictions due to mandatory local laws and regulations. (i.e. you have to settle your own travel visa if needed and/or if you are not allowed entry into Singapore because you are blacklisted as a terrorist, it's not their problem)
*As part of the entry process, entrants make a pact not to drink and drive. In the event that any winner is caught or charged for drink driving at any time from when they enter the competition to such time as when the winner enjoys the prize(s), which includes during the course of the events, the Promoter reserves the right to disqualify such winner and withdraw the prize(s) from the winner. (Make sure you keep your promise ya? I do not think they will check, but being such a well known company, I feel that they will be able to check your driving records if they want to. You would not want to win and then lose it cos you got a ticket right? Double WHAMMY!!!)

Closing date
All complete answers have to be submitted online by 2359 hours Singapore time (GMT +8) on Tuesday, 1 September 2009, thus you have a few more days to try your luck! Actually your luck to hit it is much more higher than you striking the Jackpot and it does not cost you a thing! You basically kill 2 birds with one stone, support a good cause and get a chance to have a great escape in Singapore, not too bad eh?
So what are you waiting for??? Register yourself quick!!!
