I missed the Budweiser Clydesdale ad yesterday, but here it is full of "awwww!"

I must have taken a poorly timed break because I was looking forward to this one. Did anyone else see it? Really sweet with the return of the pup.

On edit, I found out the yellow lab actually belongs to Goldie Hawn, Kurt Russell, and Kate Hudson... (see post#8)




And if you love that, here is a link to all the favorite Clydesdale ads from 1996 onward.

Since I missed it last night, I'm curious when it aired (before, during which quarter, after) the game? hlthe2b Feb 12 #17
Budweiser gave in to maggot pressure. Wonder Why Feb 12 #18
I understand. But this is about the Clydesdales which I have loved since I was a little girl. hlthe2b Feb 12 #19
Well, I don't eat horsemeat since they stopped serving it years ago at that burger chain when they got caught doing so. Wonder Why Feb 12 #20

The practice of modifying horse tails is condemned by the American Association of Equine Practitioners and the American Veterinary Medical Association.

In September, 2023, Anheuser-Busch announced that “The practice of equine tail docking was discontinued earlier this year.

No Queen of England, Vanderbilt or Kardashian has had more state-of-the-art care in their births than those mares.

of the team being cared for after a show. I vowed if I ever got a horse, that's the way I would treat it. Each horse had its own team to take the equipment off, to handle it, to check it, to put it in its truck quarters. They are treated like stars (which they are.) Totally impressive care. They are large enough to cause trouble if they wanted, but they are well trained, and well cared for.

The Budweiser Clydesdales were in Hardly Working, Jerry Lewis (1980).

Boycott Budweiser if you feel it will help and that it is the appropriate course of action, but surely you can celebrate these beautiful creatures and allow the rest of us to do so too?

I'm willing to compromise. You can enjoy those beautiful horses and I promise not to bring a knife and fork to Bush Gardens.
