Jose Cuervo to New York's Former Governor: Forget the Harvard Club and Join Us for an Epic Weekend of Real Fun

NEW YORK, Oct. 22 /PRNewswire/ -- Jose Cuervo, the world's best-selling tequila, today issued a public invitation to the former New York Governor to enjoy a weekend of responsible festivities in Las Vegas at the CuervoGames National Finals on Oct. 30.  Outraged after hearing that he, a 1984 graduate of Harvard Law School, was denied admission into the Harvard Club yesterday, Cuervo has offered to cover his travel and expenses and provide weekend-long VIP access at what promises to be one of the most legendary weekends of the year.  

"We'd love to have Mr. Spitzer join us for our weekend-long party in Vegas---where the clubs he'll be entering will treat him like a V.I.P., not an outcast," said Brian Radics, Jose Cuervo Brand Director. "CuervoGames isn't about exclusive acceptances, pretention and snobbery—it's all about the glory of the Games."

In lieu of sipping single malts while conversing in whispers in a stodgy library on Halloween weekend, Jose Cuervo wants him to join in on all if its action – poolside, with a Cuervo margarita in-hand for nationally-acclaimed live musical performances.  

"While it is Halloween weekend and we expect most people to come dressed in costume, our invitation to Mr. Spitzer is in no way contingent upon him dressing up," Radics continued.  "In fact he's welcome to lounge by the pool during CuervoGames competition in his 'signature' tall dress socks if he'd like, so long as he's drinking responsibly."

CuervoGames is a grueling athletic competition and free festival event that has brought sweat, tears and Tequila to more than 15 cities across the country.  The National Finals will serve as the ultimate season-ending, weekend-long blowout. Teams will test their athletic prowess and skill with one goal in mind: take home the ultimate title of CuervoGames National Champion and the accompanying Grand Prize package: a personalized batch of Jose Cuervo tequila and an unforgettable, all-expenses-paid weeklong adventure and tour at Cuervo headquarters in Mexico.  

The weekend will include both original and new CuervoGames competitions plus everything Las Vegas is known for – elaborate pool parties, performances by nationally acclaimed musical talent and the late-night parties at Las Vegas' premium nightclubs.
