Breitbart] The Anheuser-Busch brand suffered another blow this week when it appeared that few (if any) people visited the Budweiser tent at the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in South Dakota.Video of the empty Budweiser tent quickly began circulating on social media Thursday, showing what appeared to be a vacant lot of branded booths.
Video at the link shows the booth was staffed. I'm sure "fact checkers" will report the video was shot while the booth was not operating.
Budweiser declared itself the official sponsor of this year’s motorcycle event. Per the website:
Budweiser and its local distributor, Quality Brands of the Black Hills, are proud to be the Official Malt Beverage Sponsor of the 83rd Annual — City of Sturgis Motorcycle Rally.
Through their combined efforts you will see:
- Custom Sturgis / Budweiser signage and;
- Our mutual donations to local charities that raise money for the Black Hills area.
The local Budweiser distributor, Quality Brands of the Black Hills, has been associated with The Rally for more than 50 years. Budweiser and its distributor partners are long-time supporters of motorcycle events nationwide.
