I doubt they are giving this more than a shrug.

Well since their stock was downgraded recently at HSBC to a "hold" and their CEO is now out speaking about it, yeah, that seems like barely a "shrug".
Budlight alone in a recent report is down over 20% for April while a competing brand is UP 20%. Hmm seems like a nice coincidence to me!
And its being reported that the loss in Bud Light is impacting Anheiser Busch global sales by nearly 1%. Thats HUGE in that aspect.

They could pour all the Bud Light down the toilet and still make a profit.

Why do you keep minimizing their gaffe and the fall out?

And here is the NOT so funny part of it all inner.....
While Dave minimizes it, I can't recall such a blunder with a major campaign from a major company. But even more than that, let's assume for a moment that Bud light doesn't rebound from their current MASSIVE drop in sales.....
How many workers lose their jobs due to that lack in sales????
I know if our business saw a 20% decline, people WOULD lose jobs! (And I'm not referring to just the campaign manager).
But its just a "shrug"......

If I was a Bud Light drinker I would have been boycotting a product over politics for the first time in my life. People are getting sick and tired of perverted life styles shoved in our faces and normalized. Dylan Mulvaney is a self centered drama queen that wants to shove his beliefs down our throats.
That is typical of males who pretend to be women. I have yet to see one interviewed who wasn't an a-hole.
Not sure where but an article posted on supreme left leaning MSN told of a High School that elected a male for prom queen and a female for prom king.
They both were cross dressed. You tell me how this could have happened?
All those kids had to be indoctrinated and brain washed.

Dude, you act as though Bud Light is a stand alone product. It is not. It is one of dozens of products.
I looked it up. Anheuser-Bush owns over 100 labels.
The Company's brand portfolio includes global brands, such as Budweiser, Corona and Stella Artois; international brands, including Beck's, Leffe and Hoegaarden, and local champions, such as Bud Light, Skol, Brahma, Antarctica, Quilmes, Victoria, Modelo Especial, Michelob Ultra, Harbin, Sedrin, Klinskoye, Sibirskaya ...

Never once said its a stand alone product. But you can keep telling yourself its a nothing burger.
"Parent company Anheuser-Busch InBev (ABI) sold $71.5 million worth of Bud Light in the week ending April 29, a 23% drop compared to a year ago, according to data from Bump Williams Consulting. Budweiser sales totaled $31.5 million that same week, down roughly 11%, the firm said. Sales of other Anheuser-Busch brands — including Michelob Ultra, Busch Light and Natural Light — have also taken a hit."
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/bud-lig...r-busch-sales/
Now don't get me wrong, I don't think AB is going out of business or going anywhere. But I've been in business long enough to understand the ramifications of those numbers (were they to continue for any period of time).
But we all get it.... if it doesn't affect DAVE, it's a fuck everyone else world!
You have said that multiple times. But here's a clue...... when a business takes a hit, people take a hit. Either directly, or indirectly, pain is felt somewhere.
So to minimize it as merely a "shrug", well it speaks volumes about your thoughts on fellow Americans!

I think what AB did was up there with all time marketing gaffes. Most screw ups were meddling with a product that customers were happy with like coming up with new coke. Beer is seen as a blue collar male drink, using a effeminate homosexual male to market that product has to be 10 kinds of stupid. It is as bad if a Snap-on tool salesman started handing out calendars
where the bikini clad models had bulges in their bikini bottoms.

I went into the “Beer Cave” and noticed all the Bud stuff was plentiful while everything else was down to the last few choices. After all it’s Sunday night at 7p.
I asked the kid working about it
