Those cheese-eating Europeans sold us out. (http://news.moneycentral.msn.com/provider/providerarticle.aspx?feed=ACBJ&date=20091201&id=10778863)



Anheuser-Busch InBev said Tuesday it has completedthe sale (http://stlouis.bizjournals.com/stlouis/stories/2009/10/05/daily34.html)of its 10 amusement parks to The Blackstone Group in a deal worth up to $2.7 billion.
The purchase price includes a cash payment of $2.3 billion at closing and a right to participate in Blackstone’s return on its initial investment capped at $400 million.
Busch Entertainment Corp., the second-largest entertainment park operator in the United States after Walt Disney Co. with 25,000 employees and 25 million visitors a year, is now known as SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment.
No problem, land friends. Shamu likes his beer stout... like his women.

Since AB is dumping stuff how about dumping that nasty azz Bud 55 and that god awful Bud Light Wheat. Euro trash. Keep improving the clean, crisp taste of good old Budweiser. What am I talking about, you can't improve prefection.

The one and only King of Beers. Go Cardinals!

The Blackstone Group owns just about everything anyway. Next, we will see the sale of national parks and the USPS to Blackstone as well.

The a**holes bought the company I worked for 2 yrs ago and promptly sold the OKC division. 200 jobs in OKC, gone. I really like them...:mad:

It sucks when your Company pisses all over your loyalty.

Shamu pissing on you isn't as bad if your in the pool....just make sure you or your Mother never skinny dips with Shamu.

Budweiser has done more stupid spinoff beers than anyone I can think of. Bud 55? Bud Ice? Bud Dry? Bud Select? Bud American Ale? And guess what? They ALL taste terrible. How can one company fail so damn hard?

I went to a SeaWorld park for the first time earlier this year, and was surprised at how much beer was getting sold. Then, I realized that Bud owned the park.

I was also surprised that despite the fact that it was really, really hot and sticky weather, people still wanted to drink beer. A lot of beer. Tee hee.

As opposed to cold weather and people drinking hot and sticky beer! Eeeeww!:D

Budweiser! Best beer hands down!

I'll admit. Budweiser's better than Keystone.

That's about it. If I want a US-brewed beer, Killian's and Shiner are the bottom tier I'll usually go for. I'd rather have Sam Adams / Boulevard / Pyramid / Sierra Nevada / insert your favorite microbrewery here...

I'm sure you also prefer a bidet over a real sh*tter and probably ask for salt and lime in your domestic beer :D

That is hilarious. My parents used to live near Shiner back when they first got married, and it was the worst beer in the world. :D They said you could go down to the local taco shack and get a taco for 5c along with a 10c Shiner. But you didn't want to drink too much or you'd get bad headaches. Of course this was back when they brewed it in boots and ****.

Ha! How far they've come...

Speaking of Shiner, this is a terrific beer.

Comemorativo and Smokehouse were also excellent.

Smokehouse rocks to cook with, it's got a funky flavor when you drink it though...almost medicinal or something. But I swear it makes the best meatloaf ever.

Salt & lime is for pussies. That goes for with tequila shots, too.

And a bidet doesn't replace the toilet. It's for washing your *** off after you're done.

The Golden Wheat or Summer Wheat or whatever crap isn't bad. It tastes kinda like a ghetto Boulevard.

Yeah, Smokehouse wasn't much of a drinking beer but I do have some on the fridge waiting to be in some chili. Shiner Bock is my "regular" beer, I don't really do the big company beers since I quit going to Incahoots on coin beer night. In fact the last time that I bought some was probably for a softball game before I moved to Austin 6.5 years ago.

I knew of a case up there, of course I brought it up for someone. It is pretty easy to find on tap down here.

Shiner's the most common in my fridge, usually the Black or the Bock...

If Im out, its Guinness...
