Go away, Bud Light. just leave
It’s been a rapid downward spiral for the beer giant since Bud Light decided to partner with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney on March Madness.
The Anheuser-Busch brand has been hit hard by boycotts and backlash, leading to a sharp drop in weekly sales and a drop in AB’s stock. On top of that, it also lost its position as the number one beer in the US, now dominated by Mexican beer Modelo Especial.
But that’s not all. Bud Light has also been embarrassingly slammed on social media…and it happened again.
The most recent example is America’s favorite Traitor Beer trying to celebrate the upcoming NFL season.
“Eight Sundays until the NFL, who’s counting…” the tweet read.
8 days until sunday @NFL But who counts…

Normally, Americans would go crazy celebrating the new season of football, but Bud Light was so toxic that it completely tainted the new season of football, and even that was a celebration of the NFL’s new campaign, so Americans let them know about it.
Can’t wait for the NFL. Chilling out in the cold Yunglin on a Sunday afternoon.

Anheuser-Busch just lost over $30 billion in value, but who’s counting…

There were also satirical accounts that piggybacked on the fun.
Until it’s mandatory for transgender players to be on teams, I’m not going to watch the NFL anymore.
