TOAST WITH THE MOST

If you’re reading this within an hour of receiving it, you either didn’t go to the Guinness 250th birthday party last night at the Wrigley Mansion, or are still up drinkin’ in celebration.

The good folks from Diageo put on a hell of a shindig that was packed with 103.9 listeners who scored free tix to see Alien Ant Farm perform last night. It’s not quite the Black Eyed Peas in Kuala Lumpur (who performed for their big Guinness party) but it was cool to know that across the globe, Guinness toasts were going on, many of them linked by DirecTV. The birthday is otherwise known as “Arthur’s Day” in honor of the day Arthur Guinness signed a 9,000 year lease on the St James’s Gate Brewery in Dublin. Bet the people at SouthBridge are glad they didn’t get roped into that kinda deal.

Before the madness at Wrigley, we caught up with the aptly named Brendan O’Connell, a Key Account Specialist with Diageo Guinness USA, for a little chat. Click on the video below.
