The annual bike rally in Sturgis is on for the 83rd time and, outside of the usual awesomeness of motorcyclists and bikers from across the country gathering for a massive event, one of the best things about the rally is that Budweiser got brutally humiliated by it.
As background for those who have been living under a rock since April 1 of this year, Bud Light and its sister brands, the most obvious of which is Budweiser, have been the target of conservative anger and boycotts ever since Bud Light had Dylan Mulvaney do an ad for it on TikTok. For whatever reason, that was the straw that broke the conservative camel’s back and the boycott began.
Since then, it’s been bad news, bad news, and more bad news for Bud Light. Its sales are down tremendously, it consistently gets roundly mocked in the conservative media ecosystem and on social media, and the system that supports it – the brewers, distributors, and bars that stock it – is infuriated by the shotgun blast it delivered to its own foot and the feet of those behind it.
In any case, some idiot at Anheuser-Busch InBev decided that the Sturgis rally would be a great place to set up a Budweiser tent, as if the Sturgis crowd is not the exact crowd that told that brand to shove it. Watch the hilarious video of the treatment Bud Light is getting at Sturgis here:And the people there knew exactly what was happening, as a collection of commenters pointed out on the video of the Budweiser tent:
