Anheuser-Busch … nobody likes you anymore. Just leave.
Budweiser is still going through the fresh embarrassment of having a disastrous weekend at a prestigious motorcycle rally, Before the brand has even had a chance to get out of the hole, it is already being blasted with a new wave of lows after trying to support military veterans (or so it says).
If you didn’t read my blog from Monday (you should, give me the click), let me fill you in: Videos and photos circulated online over the weekend of a Budweiser tent at the annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in South Dakota. The footage hilariously shows nobody there, and it’s absolutely glorious.
Well, after that incredible flop, Budweiser took to X Twitter to promote its new “camo cans.”
“New can, same support for our nation’s veterans. Our camo cans are now available nationwide,” captioned the company with a photo of their new can. (RELATED: Hilarious Video Shows A Completely Empty Budweiser Tent At Sturgis Motorcycle Rally)
For 13 years, Budweiser has raised money for Folds of Honor, an organization that gives educational scholarships to both spouses and children who are related to fallen and disabled military members, as well as first responders.

But America … the greatest country in the world with the greatest citizens on the planet … isn’t buying it (literally).
Which nation? Because you are not an American company.

As a veteran, attempting to buy your way out of the bad decisions you have made… makes me distance myself even further from your brand.

Camo and horses aren’t going to save you this time around. We won’t forget.

And I’m blocked. That’s a great way to win back customers.
Just apologize. The whole world knows you screwed up. Business students will literally use you as a case study in marketing class of what not to do. Just admit your mistake. pic.twitter.com/DouGbvti1l

Would have been a power move if it was BBD (Budweiser Before Dylan). Now it just look like you are trying too hard to get the consumers back that you yourself said you were trying to get away from… too fratty?

Sorry Bud. You can’t ride the coattails of our veterans to a successful whitewashing of your marketing fiasco and subsequent failure to own up to it.
Our brave service members didn’t hide behind others. You can’t hide behind them. So…make mine a Yuengling! #GoWokeGoBroke 🇺🇸 pic.twitter.com/SrHXk9oupq

@budweiserusa backpedal pandering isn’t a good look. Our Vets,(at least the ones I know), are upset with you & #boycott because y’all decided to #GoWokeGoBroke

Not even fraudulent military support can save them … it’s a wrap, A-B.
