Why not other alcohol companies join on to sponsor a team. Now I know Webb is going to Star Yamaha.. but maybe they should rebrand the 450 program for 2024! (Wow.. I have way too much time on my hands.) Serious questions though. Let the hate comms commence!

We have had many notable Alcohol sponsors throughout the years. Miller Lite, Bud Light, Jagermeister, ect. Our sport is great for that customer market, however, most of those companies will not allow anyone under age 25 to ride on the team they sponsor and will not allow their logo on specific merch that may be for or get marketed to, underage people. There is also a bit of an issue with our sport being motorized and alcohol sponsors, so it makes it a bit harder sell, but I agree we should see it more often and I am surprised we don't.

Also Vital: "I know, ALCOHOL!!"

 

That bike looks good though. I'd run it!

Agreed. Even Monster is held off of a lot of the merch sold to youths. Feld has a separate logo for the SX Series that they usually swap onto items for kids etc. So it just becomes a hassle for products that are for adults, to get the full exposure, compared to a motorsports product that can be marketed to any age etc.

Nice Photoshop though, OP. The bike looks cool. But Yamaha isn't going to do anything to mess up their partnership with Monster either.

I think his idea was fine until he treaded into the Star Racing Fan Club’s territory

The worst thing about a Suzuki is the twisted tea endorsement..If they asked me to hold a can of that, I’d probably be a privateer still. At least then I could smash Millers like Stone Cold Steve Austin if I got on the podium..Jett should have to use carbonated fruit juice when he wins, I wonder if he does..?


EOD, I don’t care who sponsors who or what underage children do. 16 year olds fought WW2. Maturity isn’t an age, but a choice. There are certain groups that keep everybody in check with our feelings for sure. If XHamster or pornhub wanted to sponsor a team, I’m all for it, underage kids already watch it anyways. 
It seems Monster sponsors everything, it would be nice to set yourself apart. Honestly, I would like to see Milk get into some sponsors, which is the opposite of an alcoholic drink I’d say. If you smash a quart of milk and a pedalyte as soon as your first moto is done, you will feel like a stud before the next one. Throw a pickle on top of that and bam! Feeling fine. So where is Gatorade and Vlasic in this sport? I don’t know, but seems to me like companies are either complacent on where they are or haven’t hired anyone in marketing to broaden their reach further for a while  

 

It would be cool to see more sponsorships and I think it is on its way.

It seems ridiculous that an 18 year old in the states can go to war. But not vote,drink a beer, or be sponsored by Jim Beams.

Fourfourone must have some kind of notification set up on his device for anytime someone mentions onlyfans. He always seems to show up and talk about how disgusting and disgraceful it is 😂

I don't have to guess; you and I both know what's on there and I'll readily admit that it's porn. 

My point is, you can't really blame the platform which is open to creators of all types, if their average user gravitates toward only one kind of entertainment. They don't advertise as porn, and they are behind a paywall with plenty of adult content warnings. There are all kinds of brands that advertise in all kinds of media that kids have access to, and many of them are for adult things. 
On another note, I think I'd rather catch my 13 year-old son watching Onlyfans than pounding a shot of Jim Beam.

That's easy. Modeling. 

Well, that's what they all say they do for a living. Laughing

Side question....is there any booze that goes decent with Monster?

What are the kids drinking to get krunk in the club?

Red Bull has Vodka, what does Monster have?

My buddies drink blue monster with Tito’s. I’ve never been a vodka guy or energy drink guy so can’t say if it’s good or not. Also last weekend my wife’s sister brought home Monsters that were alcohol. I think they were called The Beast

I used to drink red bull and vodka, I still do, but I used to too..

In all seriousness, I will occasionally have a blue red bull and Tito’s and it’s very tasty..

I'm in favor of anything that gets rid of Yamaha's black front fender.

On the fence with booze sponsorships.    I think beer, Twizted Tea type drinks is fine....hard alcohol, not so much.  

...and I partake of all types of booze for the record.

What’s your reasoning for differentiating the 2? I’m just as drunk after a case of beer as a bottle of whiskey.

Some F1 teams are promoting 0.0% alcohol beer.

Why not try and land one of those?

I don’t drink, but I don’t really care either way. I do think they should take a black and white stance though. Like if they allow twisted tea, then they should allow any other alcohol company to sponsor teams/riders.

That's the first thing I thought of. Never mind the whole cancel culture thing, if a rider or team could weather the negativity they could be prime for sponsorship opportunity's. Could be some real money there for a privateer.
