How Bud Handled It Hoax
November 2001
Here is another message related to September 11. According to
Anheuser-Bush, they checked this out and can find no evidence that it
ever happened.
How Budweiser handles those who laughed at those who died on 11 Sept
2001
Thought you'd like to know what happened in a town north of Bakersfield
California. After you finish reading this, please forward this story on
to others so that our nation and around the world will know about those
who laughed when they found out about the tragic events in New York, PA
and the Pentagon.
September 11th, a Budweiser employee was making a delivery to a
convenience store in a town called McFarland. He knew of the tragedy
that had occurred in New York. He entered the business to find two Arabs
whooping and hollering and really cheering it up. It was obvious they
were elated with what had happened earlier. 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 told 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 and call for a
delivery again. Budweiser happens to be the beer of choice for that
community. Just letting you all know how Kern County handles this
situation! Pass this along. America needs to know that we're all working
together. Well, I need to add to this. My father in Nevada sent this to
me. Fact is, I live not too far from McFarland here in Central
California, and I heard about this at work the day after it happened.
Seems a lot of people from work frequented the store in question. But it
didn't end there. As Paul Harvey might say, here's the rest of the
story...
Seems the Budweiser driver had friends...in particular, the Pepsi route
driver. The Bud driver called his Pepsi friend from his cell phone while
he was still at the store and told him what happened. Seems the Pepsi
driver called his boss, and received the identical orders the Bud driver
did. So Pepsi went in and took out everything in the store under their
corporate brand. And if you know Pepsico (Pepsi, Frito Lay, etc.),
that's damn near EVERYTHING. Last I heard, that store has no product, no
customers (word spreads fast in these small towns, y'know) and no hope.
And I say good riddance to bad rubbish. I hope they enjoyed their
cheers...it's the last they'll be doing in THIS country.
