What does this say for the state of poker?
 
Milwaukee's Best Light and Chris Ferguson?

They trying to trailer trash to play? No one else would do it?

Discuss.

Absolutely nothing.

You think? I am perplexed by this.

Well...Beast is quite popular among the HS/college crowd (at least in my days) b/c it's cheap as hell. I prefer Natty, but oh well.

Well, how about they just figured they'd pick another beer and get paid shitloads to be sponsored by it, considering the WSOP is at least partially responsible for making High Life popular.

As a piece of trailer trash I find this offensive.

lol, nice one.

personally i hate milwaukee's best, and i find it humorous that they're trying to push "milwaukee's best LIGHT"
seriously... it's a cheap, sh***ty tasting beer that's good for one thing and one thing only - GETTIN F#*#ED UP.
so they're pushing the light version? what sort of niche are they aiming for? underage teen girls who can't handle the regular Beast?

and in regards to "why are they advertising this beer and not some other beer, are they aiming for trailer trash" etc etc... it's advertising. it's television. and that means that Milwaukee's Best offered ESPN more money than any other sponsor to advertise all over the WSOP. simple as that.

and before some troll asks: NOOOOOOOOOOOOO i don't have a friend who works at ESPN. so NOOOOOOOOOOOOO i cant verify this or post a xerox of the contract. but use your freakin head. it's business. TV is about money, and that's it.

Whoa buddy! Keep the common sense, think for yourself schtick to yourself.

LOL!

Just kidding, I am thinking the same thing quite often here, I do not read all msgs or anything so I am sure I miss a lot of their seemingly shallow low brow/IQ (take your pick) humor.

It's funny to me when one person shows up arguing about the stupidest shiite over and over, it's as if they have nothing else to do, and frankly they could use some self tweaking, not every idea or opinion needs to be SHARED.

Oh yeah, I like Miller High Life and MGD when I go for cheap beer, and that started well before the poker boom.
Old Swill commercials too? That beer is nasty!
Old Swill is nickname for Old Milwaukee.... It takes WARM even from a freshly opened ice colded can. Rather drink PBR!
Back in my college days the cheap barrels were Busch, and I don't think I've had it since, yuck.
