Free Dr. Pepper For GnR Fans?

Way back in the Spring, DPSU stated that a free Dr. Pepper would be available to all who wanted one if the new Guns N' Roses album, Chinese Democracy, came out this year. Unbelievably, it looks like they're going to have to make good on their claim.

It appears that Axl's management has yet to officially announce the release date, but there have been enough leaks regarding the exclusive launch via Best Buy that (and I say this with true sincerity) it's hard to believe it isn't going to happen. Is Duke Nukem Forever far behind?
