PIC: This very cool graphic reveals how many Irish people want to travel to a far-off exotic place

JOE

If your dream doesn’t scare you, then it’s not big enough…

In case you missed it, the good people in Budweiser are running a competition A LOT OF PEOPLE WANT TO WIN…

Ahem, sorry for shouting but this is kind of a big deal.  We are, of course, talking about Dream Big (which, by the way, is still taking entries until 11:59pm on Sunday 24 April, 2016).

You may have heard something about it, especially as it involves one of the biggest Irish dreamers alive today, Conor McGregor.

Check him out…

Since we kicked off Dream Big, we’ve had an unreal response from you, the JOE readers, with a huge number of entries so far.

It’s not really that surprising, especially considering that, if you’re the very lucky winner, you and your best bud will win a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to pursue your passions and realise your American dream in the States.

The fact that there’s a prize fund of €50,000 up for grabs too probably played a small part too, right?

Agree

Never give up on your dream…

The very cool graphic below actually reveals exactly what kind of amazing adventures Irish people are currently dreaming about.

At 44%, nearly half of the entries so far fall into the Travel and Adventure category and are full of globetrotters looking to head further afield and take in new experiences by visiting some of the most iconic landmarks and locations in America.

As a major sporting nation, it’s no surprise that the Sports and Recreation category is currently in second on 18%, while the Entertainment and Culture category is the third most popular in the competition on 16%.

There’s still time for you to Dream Big yourself though, as competition entries close at 11:59pm on Sunday 24 April 2016.

So what are you waiting for?

Dream as big as you dare and enter by heading over to BudDreamBig.ie. Over 18s only.

A judging panel will then select a shortlist of five finalists who will go forward to the final round. The overall winner will then be determined by way of a public vote on www.BudDreamBig.ie.

The winner of the Budweiser Dream Big competition will be revealed on American Independence Day, Monday, 4 July 2016, and then you’ll set off Stateside with your best bud, where you’ll meet a host of experts and enjoy experiences that will help make your dream a reality.

We’ll leave the final word to the man himself, Conor McGregor…
