Dear Bacardi,
I am a sucker for good graphic design. Your bat logo practically puts me in a swoon! Once I bought six bottles of your rum just to get a full set of "bat device" glasses. That was a long weekend let me tell you! I've been a loyal drinker of your rum since I was 17 (don't tell anyone). I'm now nearly 38 and I still love the stuff.
Recently, I swore off Coke for a year, and I just don't dig Bacardi and Pepsi. Thus my dilemma. Could you suggest a good recipe for a great cocktail?
I wear a size XL shirt and would love a bat shirt. In fact, I'd go positively downright batshirt crazy if you sent me one (sorry about the bad pun). If you don't have any shirts to give away, I'd dig a poster, or drink coasters, or a blender, or a coffee mug or something with your logo on it.
Anything would be cool. I don't expect anything, but it would make my day if you sent me something free!
Thanks,
Christopher L. Jorgensen

My reaction:
Guess they didn’t want to make my day. Oh well.
I did find out from writing Budweiser that alcohol companies can’t market to minors, which is why I included my age in the letter.
I’m not sure why they wouldn’t write back to this one. I was a gushing fanboy! I do indeed like their graphic design and their product. And no, I didn’t really drink 6 bottles in a weekend. What kind of lightweight do you think I am?
