Las Vegas Strip Appears To Be Boycotting Bud Light: ‘Competitors Being Sold Out’
Outkick ^ | April 26, 2023 | David Hookstead

People enjoying the Las Vegas Strip seem to be doing so without drinking much Bud Light.

Anheuser-Busch and Bud Light have been taking nonstop fire ever since teaming up with Dylan Mulvaney for a video that was nothing short of jarring.

Sales have taken a monster hit, multiple celebrities have publicly dragged the beer brand and it doesn’t seem like anyone is interested in slowing down.

Well, it turns out people crushing it in Vegas might be getting in on the boycott. People in Vegas seem to be opting for something other than Bud Light.

Popular YouTuber “Not Leaving Las Vegas” (real name Steven) is famous for chronicling all the craziness in Sin City.

He posted a video Tuesday night checking out locations selling alcohol on the Strip, and one thing is clear:

There’s plenty of Bud Light available while other popular brands have been picked clean.

At one point in the video, he interviews a store employee who claims he went from restocking Bud Light multiple times per shift to rarely doing it. When asked point blank if people are buying Bud Light, the unnamed employee replied with, “No.”

“It seems like there’s a lot of Bud Light on the shelves in Vegas and a lot of the competitors being sold out. So, Miller loves Budweiser right now,” the popular YouTuber said at the end of the video.

You can watch him chronicle the situation on the Vegas Strip below. It’s just one guy looking into it, but his findings seem to match up with stories from around America. People remain very unhappy with the beer brand.

This situation goes to show people are taking the Bud Light boycott seriously. This is what happens when you upset a large chunk of your customer base.

It’s not like Bud Light is an irreplaceable item. There’s a bunch of different light beer options, but only one chose to team up with a transgender activist whose entire brand is mocking women.

Now, the beer brand under the Anheuser-Busch umbrella is paying the price. The latest information showed that sales are down 17% by dollars and 21% by volume.

The craziest part about this situation in Vegas – other than the fact I’ve been inside every location featured – is that people in Vegas aren’t really taking the time to think things out.

Vegas is all about making quick decisions. Whether it’s on the tables or at the bar, people just want a cold beer or to double down at blackjack. Nobody is debating what beer to have. Get your hands on whatever is available.

Now, it seems people in Las Vegas are very deliberately choosing to not drink the formerly popular beer.

Keep checking back to OutKick for all the drama and updates as we have them. For now, people will continue to take a stand after the Dylan Mulvaney disaster.

Wow. That is the most complete list I’ve seen. People need to put this list in their pocket prior to beer run.

It is called people personally boycotting Bud Light. It drives leftists nuts when there is no organized boycotts so they can demonize the movement. It is just people exercising their freedom to choose what they want and don’t want.

Same thing can be done to Disney and their products.

Estrogenic mutations were being found back in the 60’s- early 70’s from polluted waters that got some notice, then crickets. Many drugs are excreted unchanged in urine and poorly/not filtered out. I knew because I read my dad’s Scientific American magazines. Kind of a big deal was made about that during nursing school in the early 80’s, too.

Dear Miller,
Please don't ever do what Budweiser did.
Thanks in advance.
My sincerest regards,

I’ve noticed that Bud has dropped their prices in the stores and Miller has matched them. Isn’t competition wonderful!

“Oh, and by the way. God eventually gives up on those who won’t repent.”


The LORD God never ‘gives up,’ on anyone.

He does allow the usage of Free Will and will allow destructive/sinful behavior to take it’s natural toll.

Romans 1:24 KJV “Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:”

Romdans 1:25-32 KJV Goes into great detail what those acts are. Most homsexuals/lesbians say Jesus never spoke about those acts. He did, with the Apostles, which is why it’s covered so thoroughly.

Romans 1:28 “And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;”

He removed His hand of Saving Grace, as it were. Now, there are times He allows us humans to fall so far before the Reprobate state that we hit bottom and are on our backs looking up at Him. That’s when most of us learned the Truth of the Saving Grace of Jesus. Thanks be to the LORD God!

It’s not a case of abandonment. That’s a Human failing.

((I’ll get off my soapbox.))

This should hopefully teach other companies to never go woke.
