I remember when NEXTEL came on board NASCAR and the battle of the cell phones was on. Alltel and Cingular were grandfathered in but no other cell phone company would be allowed to sponsor a car because of the "big" sponsorship by NEXTEL. The big talk then was how could a company do this. We covered that subject pretty well, but now here about this...
The beer company with the selling rights at soccer's World Cup is our dear old Budweiser. So what's the big deal? Seems that a Bavarian brewer has been selling those little shorts with the suspenders that are colored orange and has a little tail on them. They've been selling these shorts for some time at grocery stores and other places. Again, so what? Well, it seems that the color of the Bavarian national team is orange. Are you getting the picture yet? Many, many people showed up for a game with these shorts on to show their colors for their team, something that we NASCAR fans are very fond of doing. Well, the difference between NASCAR and the World Cup is that those people who showed up with those orange shorts were told to remove them if they wanted to get into the arena. Since most if not all of those people are more avid fans of soccer than even the most avid NASCAR fan is, they 86ed the shorts and went in with only their underware.
And you though NEXTEL was tough...
