I was there, and couldn't believe the shambles!! Here's what happened.

Smiley announces the raffle and asks should we have the guitar 1st ticket out or last ticket out.

The crowd shouts 1st ticket - this is the aboslute correct way to do it. (As if you only bought one ticket and you won 5th prize there was no way you were going to win the guitar). Smiley states that whoever wins the Jim Beam girls will arrange delivery to the ticket holders address.

The 1st ticket is drawn and a name is read out - I have no idea whose name it was.

As the person didn't come forward for one reason or another, Smiley then asked the crowd if the last ticket drawn be the guitar winner. I couldnt believe my ears!!

Anyway, a young lad won the guitar, and from what I've heard he sold on to a couple of lads for € 1,000

I would be very upset if it was my name that was on the first ticket drawn, but, this is the stuff I expect from Smiley!!
