re: Went to the store for beer before the draft

I think there needs to be an end goal of when to end a boycott.

The end goal I think is to make it so incredibly painful to do something stupid that no one else would think to do it.

If the boycott ends the bud light brand then the boycott ends, otherwise enjoy your messaging bud light.

Tell me you don't know shite about Yuengling without telling me you don't know shite about them.

It's the oldest active brewery in the U.S. having been in operation since 1829 in Pottsville, PA.

The original owner was brewer David Jungling who came to the U.S. from Germany in 1828. He anglicized his name to Yuengling.

If you actually enjoy bud light, and this makes you stop doing something you have enjoyed your whole life, then you may have problems. Just don’t drink it out the tranny can.

Bud Light is desperate to rebuild their image. They’re running ads during the draft of straight people in boots at a Zac Brown Band concert drinking Bud Light

Once again Bud Light misses the point. No real Baw digs Zac Brown band anymore. They are ok. At least it wasn’t Keith Urban or Rascall Flatts. But if they wanted it over, they’d had Kid Rock music instead.

It got me to thinking, besides this debacle, what other stupid thing could a company do overnight to kill their brand?
- smokeless tobacco company saying they hate baws, rednecks, cowboys, fishermen, police, and baseball players?
- Starbucks making fun of white chicks?
- Popeyes switching to grilled chicken salads?

I think the whole Bud Light thing wasn’t that it was so egregious but it became that last straw of wokeness that broke the camels back. Primarily because it was such a passive way to protest. Every evening when you stop to buy a 12 pack, you grab a different brand. You’re at the bar with a buddy, you order one of the other 18 brands they have. You don’t have to get out in the street and hold a sign or post some anti-whatever slogan you want to. Most dudes aren’t on Facebook so they don’t have to post themselves drinking some non AB beer.
They just buy something else.

I’m not ———phobic or hate anyone and I’ve always drank the white cans long before this crap came up. So I didn’t partake in any protest. I just kept drinking my own brand.

I just think this whole thing will be taught in sales and marketing classes for years to come.

I m starting to see a lot of MSM articles explaining how it is just a glitch, caused by bigoted conservatives, and will all return to normal soon. They say that memory is short, and people will come back with a vengeance.

Plus it would be embarrassing to hold a BL in your hand publicly.

There is a convenience store in Mobile that keeps Bud Lights and Ultra aluminum bottles in a 28 degree cooler. So damn good, and it's the only time I buy Bud Light. Interested to see if Bebo's kids change the selection. Pretty sure old Mr. Bebo would.....

I remember the Schlitz backlash back in the 70s. They never recovered from it.

What did Schlitz do?

I heard a Shilling Distributing Ad run numerous times on the radio here saying they disagreed with the Producers but please buy the product so they don't lose their jobs. I'd be in touch with Coors right about now.
