Thank you for the most generic/cliche PR letter ever made. I'm pretty sure every company releases the same statement when someone associated with them fucks up...

Simple and to the point. But they could have let Mr. Info handle it for a 15 pager....Laughing

Hoping things get "back on track".

Dear Blue Buffalo,
Please disregard this entitled ass hole, he should in no way represent how the motocross community feels about your involvement in the sport. We appreciate all you do and your attention to the matter at hand.

Sincerely,
Most people

"Asshole" is a compound word.

Usually when you release a PR statement you have someone with more than a 7th grade education proof read it.

"It has come to our attention that an Associate of ours LOST his Mind, On the team we sponsor. So We Thank The Track For Sending The Short Bus To Haul Off The Culprits. Momma Says "gators are mean cause they have so many teeth". In no way does Blue Buffalo condom the actions of those few individuals or Anyone Else Who Is 'Roid Raging, nor do they represent our views of the hard work and dedicated $12 an Hour Security Guards Or the Ex-CIA Agent that keep these events Safe. Please be assured we Will Be Punting Them to ensure nothing like this happens again. We’re incredibly proud to be part of such a great sport Like Motorcross and truly appreciate Both Of The dedicated and supportive motocross fans that we’ve met along the way. Thank you from your friends at Blue Buffalo And Buffalo Wild Wings"

They didn't deserve this. Their designated reps did them a disservice.

I appreciate that they take the sport and their involvement in it serious enough to take corrective action here. My dogs also appreciates their fine product!

Dear Blue Buffalo,
As a long time customer of your product (long before you supported motocross) I hope you pull all sponsorship from that team and get your logo off of those god awful looking bikes. Slater skins have no place in the sport of motocross at any level. Please move your sponsorship dollars to another team. You do have competition and we as consumers do have choices.

Likewise and I let them know this at Hangtown.
My dog and cats all appreciate their excellent food.

I love seeing non industry sponsors. That's a sign of a sport heading in the right direction. Hoping bb doesn't pull the plug.

The slater skins gotta go though. Terrible look.
