#8 Whenever I entered the cheap beer aisle, I always vacillated between Coors Light and Bud Light...I will never buy Bud again. Just my small token protest...

#9 Spread the word, yet another company has chosen poorly and decided it no longer needs the business of roughly half its target market.

#12 For your boycotting pleasure.

What are the Anheuser-Busch Brands?

It's a long and undistinguished list.

#13 Not a great move when your (shrinking) demographic is predominantly pro-Trump.

Pass me a Shiner Bock.

#14 Heh, wife was watching one of her girl shows, midget tattoo artists or some shit, super bowl ad, she asks me who is playing.

ummm......not sure.

She switches channels, and Tom Brady is doing some red carpet crap.

Well, one is New England, I sayz.

...I hate my wife's show choices, but I guess it keeps a toe in the water, because now sports is red carpet nonsense.

As for the commercials, quit kidding yourselves - they have not been good since they switched from entertainment to shock/edge pushing about 20 years ago.

#21 Who owns Bud again, Belgium? How's that refugee working for you Jean Claude, or is it perhaps Abdullah as the Director of North American marketing?

#24 They claimed it was made long ago and has nothing to do with current politics.

#25 They claimed it was made long ago and has nothing to do with current politics.

That may be so, but other companies have pulled ads before they showed due to current events. The fact that Buttwiper is still showing it proves that they are either completely tone deaf or a willing tool of the left.

I bet on the latter.

Bad way to piss off your primary customer base since blue collar workers (most of whom voted Trump) are the primary consumer of that beer.

#26 One of my Polish grandfathers grew up trilingual, spoke Polish, German & English from infancy. Arrived in USA at age 2, so had no accent besides "Midwest". As a young man, he became a sailor on the Great Lakes. Encountering anti-Polish prejudice, he adopted a German identity, went by the assumed name of "Fuchs" [English would be "Fox", a play on words I'm sure] and got by. I don't know what beer he preferred.
I like my story better than that of this commercial.

#27 Budweiser is a brand of Inbev, based in Belgium, and also carries the lines Corona and Stella Artois which recently pushes a commercial starring Matt Damon and how drinking that beer will help solve the world water crises. So this commercial is in-line with their commercial branding.

Also, Fosters, Michelobe, Modelo Especial, Beck's, among others not usually seen in day-to-day American liquor stores.

If I had any interests with or around the NFL, I would be furious.

Latinos around here drink (drank?) Bud Light, and do not like the recent immigrants.

#28 Budweiser did not become a massive company selling to the craft beer drinking blue states. Not quietly yanking this commercial was a mistake of epic proportions.

#30 Anything from LumpyRidge Brewery in Estes Park is exceptional, and that recommendation is from a rummy.
