Subway has struggled in the year since it hired soccer star and left-wing activist Megan Rapinoe as a national spokeswoman, with hundreds of stores closing across the nation.
The fast-food chain -- whose best-known spokesman, Jared Fogle, went to jail for child pornography possession in 2015 -- hired Rapinoe as a pitchwoman early last year.
One commercial featured the purple-haired anthem protester knocking food out of a man's hand with a soccer ball.
Hiring Rapinoe didn't help the company's fortunes, however: In 2021, 1,043 Subway locations closed, the New York Post reported Thursday.
The chain already had been losing stores in the two years before she became the chain's pitchwoman.
At the height of the coronavirus pandemic in 2020, Subway lost 1,609 stores. In 2019, it lost 999, the Post reported…

“Dble qtr pounder med fry and med coke and 6 piece chik nugget... 14 bucks!.”
That’s three meals for a normal person. What do you expect?
I used to buy there 10-20 times a year.
I forgave them Jared because I didn’t believe they knew.
But after Megan they lost me. No purchase since.
How many Americans know anything about the blue haired lesbian marxist soccer league?
Um... make one androgynous
Maybe she can team up with that child molester sandwich eater and get some positive advertising going for the place. I wouldnt marry a woman that says she knows how to make a sammich because she used to work at Subway.
In the 80s, their roast beef subs were so good! I can’t stomach to even walk by their stores - the smell of chemicals wafting from their stores reminds me of the preservatives airlines used to use on food and I get nausea and headaches.
Kore importantly, how many Americans want to know anything about the blue haired, lesbian, matxist soccer team?
I was surprised and disgusted when I first saw Subway’s commercial featuring the anti American freak show.
I will NOT support anything Subway, or any other woke company.
F-em.
three meals? Hah!
I stopped eating there when I learned that there was something Not Food in their bread...
spray foam insulation or something like that...
Interesting! This Trycoxagain seems like it may do the trick. I hear you cannot mail order it, but you can get it behind the counter…
My husband used to stop by and get their subs usually once every two weeks or so because it was convenient to his hangar until I told him about Jared and that purple haired freak.
Now, he will only go to Jersey Mikes or Publix!!! 🥪!
Yes!
We have to vote with our dollar!
‘Tubby’s is way better. So is Jersey Mike’s.’
indeed; Jersey Mike blows them out of the water, as the saying goes...
‘Very funny if it wasn’t so sick.🤮’
the Pride of Pennsylvania...
Not smart hiring her for any retail outlet that wants business from everyone. These woke companies make huge mistakes getting into politics.
Perhaps also a Covid casualty. But advertising matters.
