Me too. We really arrived when we found somebody to bootleg Coors.
Over the last few years I've become more a craft beer fan.

Seems like this was a pretty common mistake businesses made in the 1960s - 1970s. Henry's Hamburgers was bigger than McDonald's at one time. Then they decided to cut the beef with horse meat.

Just a forerunner in the American tradition of cutting costs and making a shotty product

If your dad didn’t drink this growing up, did you really have a dad?

I had been admiring a girl from afar at LSU so I asked her for a date and she accepted.
We were walking from the parking lot to a party and met a friend of mine on the sidewalk walking in the opposite direction. We chatted for a while and he gave us two Schlitz beers before we parted.
The girl and I were walking along sipping our beers.
ME: I don't know why everyone in Louisiana drinks Schlitz beer. This stuff is awful.
HER: Do you know who my dad does?
ME: No, but I think that I'm about to find out.
HER: He's a Schlitz distributor.
ME TO MYSELF: Great. I've wanted to go out with this girl for weeks and when I finally get the chance I screw it up on the first date. She'll never go out with me again.
Happy to report that we did go out together a few times after that.
True story.
