Believe it or not, election day is finally here, and early voting results are too close to call – will it be the reds or the blues?
Oh, did you think I was talking about politics? LOL NO. I want nothing to do with that on the internet. This is about Polling for Cocktails, an “election” held by Omni Hotels.
Over the last eight weeks, Omni Hotels pitted seven election-themed cocktails against one another, asking patrons to vote for a “president.” The drinks were divided into categories – Red, Blue and Independent – and after polls closed Tuesday, the winner came out to be...
The Reds, which took 42 percent of the overall votes.
And just for Election Day, guests who visit an Omni hotel (in our case, Whiskey & Rye at the Omni Fort Worth) and order from the Polling for Cocktails Menu will receive a free appetizer.
After all, if there's one thing America can agree on, it's free apps.
