#1 I can only hope that ALL AB/InBev products get boycotted. If this CEO is going to pull such nonsense, then I can only wish poor results upon this going concern.

#3 AB CEO is sounding a bit elitist. He needs to step down. The company needs to reestablish its base or shut down.

#4 If he's preparing his resume, I understand the senior jobs for military recruitment at DoD is opening up.

#11 InBev reported all Bud Light sales for April were down 21%, 26% retail stores. But the boycott was only getting started and not for the whole month. May's report will be catastrophic.

#12 Blames Bud Light Boycott On Social Media "Misinformation".

OH! but A.B.
I, and a lot of other Americans understand what pushing and selling Perversion is and we are fed-up.

EG.
Just $2 less, in my neck of the woods, and a 24 can case of Bud will be selling for the same price as a 24 can case of Coke Products in many stores.

#14 Bud Light Customers will not return. They already moved on and it's more than a boycott with that specific brand. The good ol' boys will mock any friends that drink Bud Light and it will last until they die.

The other brands might survive if AB does proper damage control and ends the boycott but signs suggest they won't/can't stop the boycott.

Popcorn stocks are probably going up.
