Default Budweiser story

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 tw o 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, the store was
closed indefinitely. Good old American Passive-Aggressive A$$ Whoopin!

Pass this along, America needs to know that we're all working together!

If you can read this... Thank a teacher... If you are reading it in
English....THANK A SOLDIER!!!
God Bless America !!

But we so wish it was.... Unfortunately, I just can't see a major corporation holding anything higher than the almighty dollar...
