Crashed!

Recently Guns N Roses released their new album Chinese Democracy. Since the album had been on hold for about eighteen years GNR and Dr. Pepper made a deal. Dr. Pepper said that if Guns N Roses in fact release their CD on the promised date, they would give everyone in America a free Dr. Pepper, which is pretty cool. But Dr. Pepper's website ended up crashing, not allowing the fans to get their coupon for their free soft drink. Now Axl Rose and the rest of the band are seeking an apology from the company, or they may take legal action against them.

I for one think this is absolutely ridiculous of GNR to take this so seriously. They have to understand that sometimes websites crash, and it isn't exactly any ones fault. This is just one more example we can give about Axl's crybaby attitude. I don't think that people are freaking out all that bad about this incident. How much does a Dr. Pepper cost anyway? They're only like a dollar something, and they want to take legal action against them. Don't worry Axl I'm sure you'll get your "apology" soon enough.

Axl's attorney says that Dr. Pepper was total unprepared for the amount of people that would be swarming to their site in order to claim their coupon , and even said that the company was reckless and stupid. Most visitors were greeted to the site with an error message before the site finally just shut down completely.

From another prospective, I guess I can see where they're coming from. Dr. Pepper should have been a little bit more prepared for the mass of people looking for a free Dr. Pepper. But who new so many people would want one. I guess people just love to get free things even if it is just something to drink.
