"Miller Time is all about those moments when you're hanging out with your real friends and enjoying the great taste of Miller Lite," Ryan Reis, senior director of marketing for Miller Lite said for the press release. "Because Miller Time starts with Miller, we decided to give some Miller Lite to our namesakes to share with their friends.  As the sixth most common last name in America*, we know there are a lot of Millers ready to celebrating Miller Time on us. And if you're not a Miller, grab your friends who are and bring them to one of our events."
