The Budweiser Story

(Not a joke)  


 This is TRUE!


How Budweiser handled those who laughed at those

who died on the 11th of September, 2001...

Thought you might like to know what happened in a little town north of Bakersfield, California. After you finish reading this,

please forward this story on to others, so that our nation and people around the world will know about those who laughed

when they found out about the tragic events in New York, Pennsylvania, and the Pentagon.


 

 On September 11th,

 

A Budweiser employee was making a delivery

 

to a convenience store in a California town

 

named McFarland.

 

 He knew of the tragedy that had occurred

 

in New York when he entered the business

 

to find the two Arabs, who owned the business, whooping and hollering to show their approval

 

and support of this treacherous attack.
 

 The Budweiser employee went to his truck,  

called his boss and told him

 

of the very upsetting event!

 

He didn't feel he could be in that store with those

 

horrible people. His boss asked him,

 

 'Do you think you could go in there long enough

 

 to pull every Budweiser product and item

 

 our beverage company sells there?

 

We'll never deliver to them again.'

 

The employee walked in,

 

proceeded to pull every single product his

 

beverage company provided and left

 

with an incredible grin on his face.

 

He told them never to bother to call for

 

a delivery again.

 

Budweiser happens to be the beer of choice  

for that community.  

 

Just letting you know how Kern County

 

handled this situation. And Now


  

The Rest Of The Story: 

It seems that the Bud driver and the Pepsi man

 

are neighbors... Bud called Pepsi and told him.

 

 Pepsi called his boss who told him to

 

pull all Pepsi products as well!!!

 

That would include Frito Lay, etc.

 

 Furthermore, word spread and

 

all vendors followed suit! At last report, on June 26, 2009,

Fareed Katib closed the store and filed bankruptcy!


 

Good old American Passive-Aggressive A$$ Whoopin!

I'm sure this never happened.....these companies like their money to much to pull them out of a store, for any reason.
