I caught the tail end (Har Har! Aww man, that is a good joke after reading this article!) of this newsbite on Chez106 the other morning and thought they were talking about a pub in Ottawa, but lo and behold, the news is from Scotland!
Anyhow, read and enjoy the article about a man who is banned from his favourite pub for breaking wind.

This man is definitely my hero.
What awaited me at home when I arrived a few nights ago? My free Tim Horton’s Cup!
There was a plain white envelope with no return label! The nerve! Imagine if it got lost in the mail, there would be a potential winning cup floating out there forever!
With baited breath (and Mike’s camera capturing the event) I slowly opened the envelope to find a small folded Tim Horton’s cup awaiting me. Mike and I both agreed that I would probably (at the very least) win a free coffee.
As I prepared my fingers for the eventual task of rolling the rim, I thought of grand prizes coming my way and how the system would have been obliterated if that was the case. IMAGINE the outrage from the populace if someone getting a cup through the mail one a grand prize!
Unfortunately the cup was not a big winner…not even a small one. I did not win a thing. This surprised the both of us but then put back the thoughts that perhaps:
– this is truly a random system
– they don’t grant winning cups to people who mail in for a free cup.
Perhaps everyone should mail in asking for a free cup to determine whether or not it is possible to win SOMETHING from a free cup! Join in my cause!
