And just like in NASCAR, if Buffett puts his name on it 95-99% of Parrotheads WILL buy it atleast once :wink:
Okay, you can insult JB, his music, his products etc., but when you start comparing parrotheads to nascar fans, thats when I draw the line! :lol:

Some of the best parties that I've been to are rednecks partys.
Living here in a rural-ish area I can honestly say that almost that I've run into are very friendly. Don't let a few spoil the bunch.
I don't get into racing but have been known to watch the last few laps of a race. The only few that matter imo :lol:

Being from Mississippi there more than enough rednecks!!! I'm even friends with more than a few although they are more country boys than rednecks!

I live on the outskirts of Jacksonville near Middleburg Florida (smack dab in Skynyrd country).
Some of my friends here refer to Jacksonville as New York City :lol:

Sam Adams is possibly the worst beer I've ever had.
Of course this is just my opinion and we all have them.

'course, there are 16 or 17 versions of Sam Adams, but still.... :o :o

The most disappointing thing about Landshark is that we're not getting the true strength of AB--Marketing and Beer Commercials.

Still see plenty of great Corona commercials, but AB is not supporting the brand with great commercials. Step up to the plate AB and give the brand the push that JB expected when he signed on.


signing off as a Parrothead in the heart of NASCAR country (by the way, both JB and NASCAR understand marketing to the masses better than most..)

21 and counting. I've tried most of them, from the lager to the triple bok, and liked most (not so much the fruit ones) I especially enjoy them when I sit in front of the tv for three and a half hours watching men drive fast and turn left. (Don't f@ck with NASCAR :evil: :evil: )

I just found out that Landshark is carried in a bar next to my
beach bar hangout in Old Orchard Beach, ME. Yesterday a guy
overheard heard me asking my bartender about Landshark.
He was an AB distributor from MA and explained that AB is test
marketing Landshark in various areas to see how it
competes with Corona before they put the $$$ into a
bigger push. Not sure if it's the case or not, but that's how
he explained it to me.
