Budweiser names a Clydesdale in the S.B. Commercial Stan

[slide_into_first]

It is demeaning- isn't that eight foot tall horse named Stan adorable? Look at the road apples, they remind me of a Musial home run.

Whatever

Now accepting the Order of the British Empire medal posthumously for Stan Musial, his surrogate, Stan the Clydesdale.

This is the first I've heard of it.


Meh.

Yes, that is exactly why they named it Stan, to take his place.

I don't think naming a horse after Stan is offensive per se, but I think it's lame that Budweiser arificially creates an association between themselves and his good name mostly for PR purposes. Kind of like how Budweiser also is the official beer of Soldiers Home from Deployment (tm).

It's not as if the Clydesdales aren't tied to the cardinals tho. I mean they are a part if opening day ceremonies....

But with that said....meehhhh

It was selected by votes on facebook, so don't fully blame Bud, but what the heck, they are an evil corporation.

There was probable voter fraud in the process.
