Budweiser makes example

Reading this made me feel good! Read-on.

---------------------------------------------------------

On September 11th, a Budweiser employee was making a delivery to a convenience store in a town called McFarland. He knew of the tragedy that had occurred in New York. He entered the business to find two Arabs whooping and hollering and really cheering it up. It was obvious they were elated with what had happened earlier. The Budweiser employee went to his truck called his boss and told him of the very upsetting event. He didn't feel he could be in that store with those horrible people. His boss told him, "Do you think you could go in

there long enough to pull every Budweiser product and item our beverage company sells there? We'll never deliver to them again."

The employee walked in, proceeded to pull every single product his beverage company provided and left with an incredible grin on his face. He told them never to bother and call for a delivery again. Budweiser happens to be the beer of choice for that community.

Seems the Budweiser driver had friends...in particular, the Pepsi route driver. The Bud driver called his Pepsi friend from his cell phone while he was still at the store and told him what happened. Seems the Pepsi driver called his boss, and received the identical orders the Bud driver did. So Pepsi went in and took out everything in the store under their corporate brand. And if you know PepsiCo (Pepsi, Frito Lay, etc.), that's darn near EVERYTHING. Last I heard, that store has no product, no customers (word spreads fast in these

small towns, ya know) and no hope.

I'm sure Pepsi and Bud must have thought it was worth it after a nice fat couple thousand dollar bill afterwards...if you believe this is true, anyways.

True or not it's a great story. I wonder what immigration officials would think if they were told of these terrorist simpathizers ? (sorry .....spelling very badd typing not to goood ether)

Oh its absolutly hilarious, and I'm sure some of it has truth...I just have a hard time believe they recovered all of their products from the store. But then again those afgani bastards are so stupid they probably put on the smile and said something retarted like "please come again".
