Budweiser Humiliated at Sturgis After Company’s Stunt to Win Back Fans Backfires
American Insider ^ | Aug 11, 2023 | Taylor Gold

Budweiser showed up with a tent at a major motorcycle event that the company sponsored in the city of Sturgis in South Dakota.

The Sturgis Motorcycle Rally is the world’s largest motorcycle rally that began in 1938 by a group of Indian Motorcycle riders. It was originally held for stunts and races.

Social media erupted as people saw no one visiting the Budweiser tent or drinking its beer. “ZERO attendees at the Budweiser tent in Sturgis,” one person commented. “This may be the BIGGEST marketing blunder of all time!”

This needs to happen to a few more company brands to ensure the message is fully communicated.

Sturgis?

Transheuser Busch was advertising at the wrong rally.

Now if Bud Light was advertising at this rally...

Looks like morning, not prime beer drinking time. Still…

It's prime drinking time at Sturgus 24 hours a day. I've been to ten of them, Budweiser ruled always. Now they can't get a single biker to drink it. You have no idea how massive that is.

Son of a Gun!!! This makes the 66th time in a row, I have missed the Sturgis MC Rally. Though, I did try the Lil Sturgis rally in Sturgis, MS about 20 years ago.

Dale Jr. made more money for Budweiser than he made for himself.

” Still in business.”

Shouldn’t that be “Back in Business” for at least the third or fourth time?

My dad owned several Indian motorcycles through the years. The last one was a 46 Chief.

...if you go to the link and scroll down to the video you can hear the bikes in the background and when the camera pans around, you can see all the traffic on the street. That bud set up is dead in the water

American companies need to understand Sexual Weirdo PR Firms hate traditional Americans - AND that Traditional Americans ARE the customers that buy American products.

I thought Antifa was going to Sturgis to fight the fascists? I would have liked to see that.

Like Biden nosing out Carter....
this knocks the new Coke off the center podium for the gold...

Remarkable in many ways, really.

And more than a little pathetic.

“Looks like morning, not prime beer drinking time. Still…”


In one of my many ‘positions’ I once managed a bowling alley...

One league team had T-shirts that read:

You Can’t Drink All Day If You Don’t Start In The Morning

I second that. It’s a really good, family friendly movie.

They should have had Mulvaney circling around on a pink Vespa and flying one of those horrid rainbow-tranny flags.
