Remember the guy who sued Pepsi because they denied giving him a fighter jet in return for Pepsi points?

He never got the jet, took Pepsi to court, and lost.

But he never gave up, and now he’s finally received something that’s arguably even better.

Or at least more useful.

1. 7M miles from Frontier Airlines

He didn’t get the fighter jet, but Frontier Airlines rewarded him with 7 million (!) miles, which means that he’ll basically be able to travel for free (on Frontier) for the rest of his life.

3. Kind of like the old joke:

First prize is a one week vacation in Boise City, Oklahoma.
Second prize is a two week vacation in Boise City.
