Definitely!

——and flashing a peace sign at a yard full of biker dudes seems to be borderline seweecidal?

“...Shark Tank investor Kevin O’Leary say brands should never pick a side on a controversial topic. That is the position Budweiser found itself in.”

Try picking the right side and see what happens...putz.

Budweiser did not have enough transgenders there to give a wink and a nod to all the men there.

That is what the old Busch Brewery would do. Now, up until the 90’s there was a rendering plant south of the brewery. On summer nights it would gag you. It's stench was often blamed on the Brewery. The ST. Louis Brewery was the last coal fired brewery in the U.S. we ran the 500 lbs steam through two steam turbine generators and a small unique turbine generator to make about 40-45% of our electricity. Then sent the reaming steam to the brew house. Oh, until March of 1986 we had beer boxes in every break room. But there was a strict code of do your job.

A few staff members were spotted hanging behind a Budweiser booth, with one of them flashing the peace sign.

If that is the index and middle finger, isn't that the sane as V for Victory? Perhaps the reporter misgendered the signal.

[Mean Daddy]

I’m surprised there haven’t been investor lawsuits against A-B.

[AndyJackson]

not a lot of Trans-bikers at the rally.

Finally, an angle to shut down Hell's Angels. Go for it Garland.

[Liz]

Yup.

[bgill]

Good one.

[GOPJ]

I remember when there were good companies... seems so long ago.

[MarMema]

I remember you could smell that crossing the bridge.

[Loud Mime]

Bud missed the opportunity. The video showed guys. Bud should have had hot babes. ZZ Top understands the marketing strategy.

[Texas Fossil]

The local beer distributor sponsored the event for 50 years.

Bud might have supplied some signage etc. and possibly some price concession for the promotion. But I have not read anywhere that AB has sponsored the event.
