    I think we need confirmation that Yuengling knowingly sponsored a pride event and didn't just sponsor what someone presented as a "family friendly" event.

    I could see a group wishing to see everyone get the Bud Light treatment, especially if they have turned down pride theme events before. There is some shaky speculative journalism at that link.

    That said, if they really did get on the bus on purpose, then full steam ahead.

    If it's true, how dumb can they be? They were reaping the benefit of the Bud Lite boycott, then they decide to jump on the woke train? All they had to do was nothing.

    Sonofabitch. I was a Yeungling fan. Not any more.

    That was an unbelievably stupid thing for them to do. The result is predicable

    That's why I sorta think they and us are getting played. I have yet to see any official promotion of the event on their page.

    So being from the area I may be able to put some perspective on this. Musikfest is a huge 10 day event with many venues. Yuengling is the sponsor of one of those venues for the 10 days and has been been for several years. Musikfest books the shows. Yuengling was involved with the venue long before the booking of any of the shows.

    And that is what I fear, that what may be a holdout from all this nonsense is being setup for sabotage and the retards on our short buses are gonna do the work for them.

    Bud Lite, Target and the rest put this shit on their own page. I have seen NOTHING on Yuengling and it looks very much like when they learned the venue was gonna be used for a drag show, they requested that Musikfest take down anything that mentions their sponsorship. Wouldn't it be something if the one holdout who refused to knowingly support any of this, gets sacrificed anyway for their efforts.

    It is a time for target discrimination and I wondered how long it would take for somebody to get implicated in supporting something they never supported.

    Yuengling does need to address it though, we need to hear "those ****ers tried to pull a fast one on us and we pulled our support, furthermore we don't appreciate being forced into a political issue we were trying to stay neutral on or simply didn't agree with."

    Very true. And why are we just boycotting Bud Lite when they are in fact owned by InBev who also owns Modelo Especial which has now moved into #1. It also costs more than Bud Lite. Check Fox news' website. There is an interesting article from a former employee that this was all planned by InBev to sacrifice the Bud Lite brand. Benefits are being cut. Contracts are being renegotiated and layoffs are taking place.

    That sounds like a hard turn from what Yuengling has been doing and saying. I would be surprised if this was a corporate thing and not something much smaller and not run through corporate.

    I have not had a Bud Lite in years. I won't stop drinking Yuengling though.
