Berry v. Blair

I'm taking an honor's law course this year, and we have cases that we need to argue and such. I'm just curious what other people think of this one, I'm on the side of Berry, the waitress, which sucks. I think I might ask for your opinions everytime I have a case, which will be about once a week. Tell me what you think.

A former Panama City Brach Hooters waitress Jodie Berry filed suit against the restaurant's corporate owner, Gulf Coast Wings Inc. She alleges that the restaurant manager Jared Blair announced a contest last April Fool's Day in which the company would reward the waitress who sold the most beer that month with a "new Toyota automobile." The waitresses staged a most competitive effort in their attempt to win the contest. A lot of beer was sold that month. In May, Berry said, Blair told her that she's won the contest and had her escorted blindfolded, to the parking lot, where she received a "new toy-Yoda" Star Wars doll. The suit calls the company's actions a breach of contract and fraudulent misrepresentation. The manager is adamant about the fact that it was an April fool's joke. "I said 'brand new Yoda'." Two words spaced apart, said the manager. The manger stated that the waitresses misled themselves. They never questioned me. Will Jodie Berry prevail in her suit for breach of contract and fraudulent misrepresentation?
