If Twisted Tea likes our sport.. why not...

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.

18 year olds can vote in the US.

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

Just personal reasons.    People can agree or not.

Glad Boston Beer Co is involved in moto, although I'm more a fan of the Sam Adams side of the company. I'm assuming the reason why we don't see more alcohol companies involved is because of alcohol sponsorship regulation which is a shame

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. 

I can’t imagine a quart of milk, Pedialyte and pickles settling well while probably wanting to barf already Sick

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

You and 30 others. 
When I was doing bodybuilding, a lot of things wanted to make me throw up, but the results did not lie. 
“keep it down pussy” is what I told myself. Ha

For a while I had a beer sponsorship on the bike. It was also cool because it was my favorite beer

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?

Lung…I like Hendricks gin and Monster Ultra (white).  

Hendricks has different flavor profile than Bombay, Tanqueray, etc so it pairs smoothly so even if you aren’t normally a gin drinker it works.

Gin and Juice….laid back….😎

milk-was-a-bad-choice

With my stomach, second moto would not end well!

Beam tastes like dirty socks and vodka goes with anything including monster.

I wonder if NBC will share any streaming numbers with Feld or the teams so they can use it to attract sponsorships. That's been the problem with moto, it's too small for the big sponsors and to expensive and diluted for the number of small sponsors.

This thread should have a hipster warning

All this talk of riders being sponsored by booze brings new meaning to the other thread titled " AC passed out and Masterpoole barfed"

It’s weird because I thought that alcohol and cigarette companies were not allowed to sponsor teams anymore. I remember the days of Camel Supercross with Budweiser being everywhere. 
 

I think Bud Light was the last beer to sponsor MC on the KTM. I could see Bud Light making a comeback in SuperMotoCross. It’s a gay name so might as well have a gay beer sponsor the series.

It's weird you were able to have a thought.

Since some of you seem to not be for alcohol sponsors. How about Rick Ware Racing calls up KTM and gets a factory services deal and then calls up Bass Pro Shop for sponsorship so Savatgy isn't left without a ride again for 2024. It really is hard to believe a guy with that much talent doesn't have a solid ride.

Most of the 21yos can’t handle their alcohol, we don’t need to add the 18-20yo crowd to that Laughing

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. 

Considering how much market share they have lost, and the ceo begging people to think about the AB employees at risk of losing their jobs, I am not sure they have much of a promotion budget.

It has been fun to watch the train wreck in slow motion though, huh?
