Impossible to have shame when everything we used to label as immoral is now considered righteous.

For those in the know, how long will it take or tough will it be for sports stadium partnerships to fall apart? Was at a rangers game last night, and it seemed 95% of the offerings were InBev products. Had to settle in on a very mediocre coors light. Is it too much to ask for decent non InBev choices?
Taking a guess, it would be hard to say

Now being reported that Bud Light is doing a can redesign featuring a camo motif benefiting a military charity. Lol, they are getting desperate.
Still with no admission that they ****ed up.
As an executive, she probably has a contract preventing it. She'll just be on leave forever.
Executives at that level very very rarely get fired. They're told in private they need to look for a new position. It's an unwritten rule because companies are so afraid if they don't let the exec save face they won't be able to recruit good talent.
Once they reach a certain level, no matter how poorly an executive does, they will always be able to find another job somewhere. I could tell you a few stories.

How now! What's your issue with Hey Dudes? They are very stylish and very comfortable. 100000x better than crocs or flip flops
I work at a courthouse. Stunning how many people come in in shorts, pajamas, belly shirts, slippers, etc. And this is for court.Sea Speed said:agent-maroon said:

I just heard about these Hey Dudes. Friend was raving about them. I tried them on and they felt weird. No thanks, I'll just stick to my flip flops at the vacation home.

Was finally around two Bud Light drinkers this week.
One had switched to Lone Star. The other was trying to find something new, he was drinking Shiner Light or Blonde or something.
Both said they're not going back. Neither were drinking AB products at all.

That's what, 10 percent of the market? At most.Ellis Wyatt said:Bahahahahahahahahaha!Kozmozag said:

Maybe this is some real vast right wing conspiracy to destroy the gay community via liver disease from drinking many thousands of bud lights per capita over the course of a few months. Note: I don't wish that on any one.Ellis Wyatt said:Bahahahahahahahahaha!Kozmozag said:

Although I did see one couple pushing their cart out of a grocery store and he had an 18-pack of Bud Light. My first thought was that he is a ****.

I live in central Florida and Budweiser products are fully in stock everywhere but other brands are flying off the shelves. The fact is, no self-respecting man wants to be seen buying Budweiser.

Of course, Coors and Miller also celebrate same-sex lifestyles and so I'd say America is ripe for another beer company to become men's men and take over a huge chunk of the beer market.
Bud Light sales continue to get worse. Now down 28% in the first week in May. Competing beer brands have seen their sales increase. With one trans ad Bud Light destroyed their business. Graphic via @wsj. pic.twitter.com/5s3rR29Uoq

They're getting grief from all sides.Quote:
Bud Light sales began dropping in the first week of April and kept falling for weeks. The boycott has hurt other Anheuser-Busch beers, too, including Budweiser, Michelob Ultra and Busch Light. Sales volumes for rivals Coors Light and Miller Lite in the first week of May were up about 16% and 17%, respectively, according to Bump Williams.
…
Two Republican senators have called for an investigation into Anheuser-Busch's partnership with Mulvaney, alleging that the influencer's social-media followers include people under the legal drinking age. The company said it follows industry guidelines for ensuring that its marketing reaches adults and that Mulvaney's Instagram account met them.
The Human Rights Campaign, an LGBT rights organization, said Anheuser-Busch had showed a "profound lack of fortitude" and should have stood in solidarity with Mulvaney as people attacked her on social-media and conservative news outlets. The group this month suspended the brewer's Corporate Equality Index score, which ranks companies on their policies for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer employees.

And for all those who think it's no big deal, it's a 1/3 loss of market share by the biggest beer brand in the country. The company thinks it's a big deal.
Specifically, they were going on about how big InBev is and how this is only one brand among many. And yet, the company has committed to tripling its BL ad budget with horses and patriotic themes this summer and has been racing to calm distributors down according to the article.Prosperdick said:Yeah where are those morons who claimed it wasn't that big a deal, stock price blah blah blah.techno-ag said:
