Junior to Run Bud Bowl Special Paint Scheme

REMEMBER TO VOTE FOR THE OUTSIDE GROOVE LEAST POPULAR DRIVER AWARD--INFO BELOW!

Even in the heat of summer, sports fans’ minds turn to football. So it was greeted with great excitement today when Budweiser and Nascar driver Dale Earnhardt Jr. announced a special “Bud Bowl” paint scheme for the season’s finale at Homestead.
“Ever since I was a kid, I grew up watching the Bud Bowl”, explained a beaming Earnhardt. “I always wanted to grow up to be like those legends Budway Joe, Billy Bud and Bobby Bud, and, of course, The Freezer (The Appliance of Defiance). Today, I realize that dream.”
The Bud Bowl is an annual football game between the top players from Budweiser and Bud Light. In recent years, the game has been without a television home, but will see coverage this season on AATV: The Network for Drunks.
“We see great things again for the Bud Bowl, and, as you all know, your event is nothing without a special paint scheme”, elaborated Budweiser President of Marketing and Funny Dogs, Scott Wilson. “And collectors, don’t you worry—we have the kids in China making the 1:24’s already!”
Earnhardt commented on the irony of running for Budweiser, when he “…grew up a life-long Bud Light fan. I mean, they were always the underdog—they were the Buffalo Bills of CGI animation.”
Earnhardt also slyly avoided naming a favorite for this year’s matchup. “Both teams are strong—you just have to look at their rosters. Bud Light has the more explosive offense, with quarterback Tom Beerdy, tailback Illdrinkagain Tomlinson, and tight end Jeremy Sudsley. But Budweiser brings a stout defense—guys like Lofa Tapbrewtwo and Dwight Frosty—plus you never count out a team coached by Bill Beerachik.”
“Any way you slice it, it’ll be a hell of a game, and I’m just glad to be involved in it. Because typically at Homestead, I’m not involved in anything.”
