Once Upon a Time...During the OktoberFest

Once Upon a Time, there was this creative writing competition held during the OktoberFest.

Entries came from far and wide, over a weekend of intense competition between the senior and junior warring camps. For best results, some entries were reputedly written under the influence of the theme for the contest,

“Here's to alcohol! The cause of, and solution to, all of life's problems!” - Homer Simpson

The battle was intense and hard-fought, and the verdict had to be decided by two wise men from the Finance world, Professor Sengupta and Professor Uday.

After due deliberation, Ankur Sawhney pipped Sonali Ahuja to the winning post, giving a big boost to the juniors' morale for the remainder of the Fest.

But in the end, it had been an enjoyable exercise in creativity....and everyone lived happily ever after!

Below are all the final entries which maintained any kind of link with the theme for the contest....!

The font and background contrast painfully for the eyes, wish it was easier to read here.

The Oktoberfest had turned into an enormous world famous festival. The Oktoberfest is known as the Largest Volksfest in the World. Starting in 2008, a new Bavarian law banning smoking in all enclosed spaces that are open to the public will be in place at the Oktoberfest. This will mean a complete smoking ban inside the tents. However, after heavy losses in the 2008 local elections, the state's ruling party wants to grant special exemptions to beer tents and small pubs
