A Friday Laugh

Intermissions and commercial breaks at hockey games provide all sorts of opportunities for hockey franchises to really push local promotions. The USHL's Green Bay Gamblers have never failed to drop some advertising on their fans as a way to pay their bills, and they have a unique little race that features three randomly-chosen fans dressed as beer cans. If there's one thing I know about wearing top-heavy costumes, getting up from a fall is certainly no easy task.

While no one is going to complain about Budwesier, Busch Light, and Natty Light's efforts in this race, Bud Light might have a little explaining to do after ending up looking like an overturned turtle on the ice.
Tripping over one's feet in a race is never good, but when one is wearing a fairly rotund beer can? Devastating. There are no medals for effort in this race, Bud Light. How the once-mighty have fallen!

All jokes aside, the Gamblers have had other beer races hit social media for some epic wipe-outs and miraculous recoveries. Case in point? Check out Busch Light bailing at the start of this race only to find a second wind from January 2016!
Not bad at all, Busch Light. Excellent job at roaring back in this race!

If there's one thing you can say for both Bud Light and Busch Light aftr watching these two clips, it's that both brands of beer seem to go down easy! And with that, I'll show myself out.

Until next time, keep your sticks on the ice!
