Bud Light Digs Bigger Hole for Itself, Sponsors Several Pride Events as Value Plummets $15.7B
Daily Fetched ^ | May 26, 2023 | By: Jason Walsh

Bud Light has decided to double down on its LGBT stance and is now sponsoring several Pride events across the U.S. despite Anheuser-Busch InBev’s market value plummeting to $15.7 billion.

The Beverage company has been in a death spiral since its disastrous partnership with transgender activist and influencer Dylan Mulvaney.

But now Bud Light is listed as a sponsor for Pride parade events in Cincinnati and Columbus, Ohio, and St. Louis, Missouri.

According to a report from The Daily Wire, “in St. Louis, Missouri, where Anheuser-Busch is headquartered, the company is listed as the presenting sponsor of the St. Louis Pride Parade. A sponsorship packet explains that there are only four’ presenting sponsor’ slots available. The ‘Rainbow’ sponsorship tier, located below the ‘presenting sponsor’ tier, requires entities to pay $25,000.”

“In Columbus, Bud Light is listed as a ‘Diamond Sponsor’ for the city’s upcoming pride parade,” the report adds. “According to a document from Stonewall Columbus — which ‘organizes and hosts’ the ‘annual’ event — companies are required to donate $20,000 to the organization in order to become ‘Diamond’ sponsors.”

A post about the event on the San Antonio River Walk website, the Bud Light logo on the event sponsors list links to the website for Silver Eagle Beverages. That website states that Silver Eagle Beverages is “one of the largest members of the Anheuser-Busch wholesaler family.”

Meanwhile, Anheuser-Busch’s market value has completely collapsed following the brutal conservative boycott.

The shocking $15.7 billion figure was determined by using S&P Global Market Intelligence data.

“The market value of Anheuser-Busch InBev, whose fourth bestselling brand is Bud Light, dropped $15.7 billion since April 1, based on a conversion to U.S. dollars by Investor’s Business Daily using data from S&P Global Market Intelligence,” Investor’s Business Daily reports.

“That’s the day Dylan Mulvaney, a TikTok influencer and transgender woman, pitched the Bud Light brand during the NCAA March Madness tournament.”

“Meanwhile, the other major publicly traded global beer brands have added $3.2 billion in market value during the same time,” the report adds.

Last month, President Donald Trump broke his silence over the Bud Light boycott.

“It’s time to beat the Radical Left at their own game,” Trump wrote.

“Money does talk—Anheuser-Busch now understands that.”

Seems unlikely the current company leadership can afford to do anything but plow through; and hope something unexpected happens to distract critics.

If things do continue to deteriorate, investors can, perhaps, fire and replace the entire management team.

Mass market beer is different and the customers they are losing permanently are mostly the guys who drink several cases of beer a week, those guys moved on and 10 years from now will still be mocking the buddy who didn’t know and shows up with a 12-pack of Bud Light.

Bud gave up a chunk of their sales that won’t be coming back.

I’ve always disliked Corona

WTF do people want to put fruit in their beer?

I don’t know what kind of adjunct they use in brewing, but after few Coronas, the next day I feel like I drank formaldehyde. I need 36 hours to recover.

Bud Light has gone full gay. The Titanic crew just dynamited it’s hull so maybe only half of the ship will sink.

It’s pretty obvious now that the idea of “making money” has flown out the window. Money is no longer talking to these guys.

It hasn’t been about money for awhile now. It’s about staying in one piece and keeping your family, friends, and pets out of danger. Yes, they fear social approbation - but more than that they fear terrorism. The LGBTXYZs WILL stalk you. They WILL kidnap. They WILL target you for threats. They WILL groom your children via the internet and cell phone apps.

Is there something you love? If you cross the LGBTXYZ you can expect to lose that thing. And if it’s a company that you put a lot of work and worry into, you will worse than lose it. No, they are not “the enemy” - they are the enemy’s Gestapo, the enemy’s Special Forces. (And just as in Nazi Europe, once they have done the job, they will be tidily eliminated, like all the other globalist fools who thought they would end up on the top of the pile at the end. The catholics, for example.)

You can legitimately say these corporate sellouts are cowardly, weak, fearful, etc - but so are a lot of people. Lots of people will give up whatever they love when faced with the ugly threats typical of our Rainbow friends.

I’m supposed to have given up years and years ago. I didn’t but I did lose just about everything and now find myself hated and persecuted for things that I never even got close to. That’s how they operate. I still have a roof over my head and food, etc, but another thing they make clear is that I’m going to lose those things as well and that is whether I cave and start cooperating or not.

Get ready for the next “pandemic” because it’s going to be a lot worse than the last one because we’re going to be flooded with illegal aliens, too. (And no one makes them get shots! or tests! or anything!)

And get ready for all those nice folks, former employees for Anheuser-Busch, Disney, North Face, etc, to be out there competing for whatever jobs are left with you, or whatever benefits are left, after the illegals take the lion’s share of living space and take up all the sidewalks and city/national parks, too!

If/when communism gets its way, NOT having a nice cold beer at the end of a hard work day will be the least of our worries.

Since it’s gonna be Memo Day, here’s something about the 42nd “Rainbow” division.

https://wwvets.org/home/42nd-rainbow-division/

The 42nd “Rainbow” Division

“The 42nd was created in August 1917 and comprised of mobilized National Guard Units from 26 States and the District of Columbia. The nickname “Rainbow Division” represented the diversity of men grouped into one division as reflected by Chief of Staff Major Douglass Mac Arthur that they “would stretch over the whole country like a rainbow.” The New York National Guard had served in Pershing’s Mexican expedition in 1916 and Mac Arthur’s vision, evolving from a desperate need for more experienced officers to train the newly drafted army, created the 42nd.”

I bet they figure it will blow over at some point. IIRC, Target lost billions in market cap when they let men in the ladies room. They recovered.

Decent people will NEVER accept the sexual mutilation and sterilization of children.
If Bud Light stands with people who do, they'll be rejected.

lol - they do realize this is, most likely, just setting themselves up for more embarrassment right? I mean, the trans community aren’t happy with them either now - because they didn’t double down for them. It wouldn’t surprise me if their beer goes unsold at these events either. This isn’t a ‘community’ that is very forgiving.

It's like they're projecting the song "Suicide is Painless" written by Johnny Mandel and Mike Altman which was used as the MASH theme song...on a corporate level.

We'll kill the company in our efforts to CHANGE things to how they have to be in our quest to get a good DEI score...
because the people who really want those changes and who are really in control are directing our actions.
(always in the background while the pawns get taken out)

Suicide is painless
It brings on many changes

Nope, just one woman on their staff pushed this campaign. VP of Marketing. Alissa Gordon Heinerscheid. And I write it like that because of how we write out criminals full names in articles. She single-handedly approved and ran with this idea that is destroying this company and its just getting worse.

A guy would have been fired right away for such a massive crapstorm.

Do not underestimate persistence of the Devil. Yes, all this trans stuff is authored by him to destroy families.

It might be the devil in your mind but in mine it is a small handful of diabolical humans who are pushing a socialist agenda causing all of this turmoil! IMHO if I could eliminate 10 people from existence in this world all of this bull$hit would stop....

With this Pride sponsorship announcement, I would bet that Ms. Heinerscheid’s paid leave of absence is about over with, and that she’ll be reporting back to the office any day now.
