They stopped selling it altogether at the course I play at. Nobody would touch it and the keg went stale. The pro shop stopped selling all Nike apparel as well because enough of us told the GM that we wouldn't buy that shit on a bet.

I drive to Total Wine, a little out of the way, for both Coors Keg Bottle and PBR in longnecks.

The wifey has bought me six Rhoback shirts in the past year, my nike golf shirts continue to slide to the bottom of my golf apparel draw, they will make nice oil rags one day soon.

This one is my favorite:

I had some Nike spikes. Threw them in the trash. Went through my closet and threw out anything with a swoosh.

yep, since Nike decided to hire a political person and make business decisions based on his cult.... I've washed my hands of anything and everything they sell.

Dylan Mulvaney says she HE tried to ‘fix’ the Bud Light boycott by pitching ad where a cowboy and trans person share a beer

https://nypost.com/2024/03/14/busine...cbo=v2-2orDaSQ

Published March 14, 2024, 9:17 a.m. ET
Transgender social media star Dylan Mulvaney revealed that she pitched a “Western commercial” to Bud Light where a cowboy and a trans person share a beer — but the company “didn’t reach out.”

“I think humor can be very healing, and I think it can appeal to both sides,” Mulvaney said of her “idea of how to fix last year’s situation” during a panel titled “When Beer Goes Viral” at South by Southwest.

Mulvaney’s appearance at the festival in Austin on Sunday was one of the only times she spoke on her ill-fated tie-up with Bud Light, which had the company’s conservative consumers snubbing the brew since April — when ads starring Mulvaney on social media showed her cracking open a can of Bud Light in honor of March Madness and celebrating “365 Days of Girlhood.”

The boycott may have cost Bud Light parent Anheuser-Busch as much as $1.4 billion in sales.

Anheuser-Busch said that its 2023 organic revenues in North America nosedived “primarily due to the volume declined of Bud Light” in its fourth-quarter earnings report.

Mulvaney suggested at SXSW that the outcome could have been different if Bud Light stood up to “bullying.”

“I think of it [Bud Light] kind of like a parent, where the parent doesn’t put a stop to something, then the bullying can continue,” Mulvaney said during the panel discussion earlier reported on by the Daily Mail.

“These brands need to step up,” the 27-year-old social media personality said, noting that “certain brands didn’t even continue speaking with me” after her controversial Bud Light ads.

..blah blah blah...

A local family restaurant we went to on Saturday that's been in business for 45 years said they stopped carrying it because nobody was buying it anymore and their supply went stale. No loss.

I really had hoped this faggot Mulvaney would have joined the 41% by now.

So Mr. Frilly-pants thinks that if Bud Light had simply stood up and lisped, "Stop that!", that people would have stopped making fun of them and bought their beer again? He's not just gay as **** - he's really stupid as well.

I always thought he was just confused about his gender. It is now clear he is confused about everything.

I can think of a redeeming use for all the stale Bud Light in bars around the world.

A beer soaked wet t-shirt contest. (biological women only)

I'm sure I'd laugh when Badger repeats that AB still hasn't suffered any losses. A 1.4B nut kick is a pretty big loss there homie.

Monies lost can never be regained.
Applies to bad business decisions, labor strikes, labor shortages, spoilage, etc...
