This Bud's for who???
I was at a large conference (16,000 plus attendance) in the Gaslamp in San Diego last week. I was out and about for four days at bars and restaurants, including Monday Nigh Football. There were a couple events where there was free beer available from local bars/restaurants.

Bud Light was an option lots of places, but I noticed lots of people went out of their way not to drink it.

I think it is safe to say the brand can now be considered toxic.

If Uncle Dana really wants to back this deal, he should let a biological male claiming to be a women fight a biological women. Let biological men compete in the women’s division and win all the belts. Big Grin

The latest clueless, useless marketing idiot to get the boot. Oh, sorry, he's going to "resign". And he won't be replaced. Damn, man, you fucked up the product, the job and the position itself.

Anheuser-Busch’s marketing chief to finally exit after Bud Light’s Dylan Mulvaney fiasco

"Benoit Garbe"? Don't tell me- Belgian, right? GTFO, interloper.

His LinkedIn page has the usual meaningless compound bullshit: "My goal is to inspire and transform businesses, making them more digitally powered, creatively inspired, and purpose driven. I believe that higher purpose and human insights are the new catalysts for business growth, inspiring employees, touching consumers, and building stronger communities."

Uh huh. Meaningless blather.

Jackass. You left out the part about fucking up your employer's sales figures flatter than hammered shit.

Well just today steve crowder’s under cover team same ones that produced the Nashville shooter manifesto. They produced the canceled check to Dylan for 185k. Sounds like the marketing company that teams with influencers and big brands is going sideways and maybe a disgruntled person who’s about to be or was laid off leaked it. Reportedly money in this range is evidence of a full blown campaign and it blew up dramatically in their faces. Then the cover up “it was a one off can gift” was all BS.

It pleases me to no end to see Bud Light continue to suffer humiliation and financial failure as fallout from this fiasco. It's one of the biggest culture war wins for the "normals" in years.

Someday there will be a real in-depth expose on how all this came about, what the real plan was before it blew up and then all the shenanigans in trying to control/repair it. It will be fascinating. It will definitely be a college course in the future, but there's still a ton we don't know.

I'd bet that wasn't the only check. No way that kind of cash got green lit by some "lower level manager". Bud Light-in-the-Loafers should just fess up to their screwup and take their lumps.

Emmitt Smith partners with Bud Light for new NFL campaign, talks why fans should come back to brand...



I don't have a problem with that... I like those two guys...
However, it is Bud Water! Most people who have left have discovered other beers they like better and won't come back.



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

Are Manning and Elliot broke or just individuals who will jump on any bandwagon, no matter how disgusting, for money?

Jesus Christ himself could come down during the second coming holding a can of Bud Light, and I still wouldn't ever again buy or drink that shit.
