| Police Educate Beer Thief Police in North Carolina are shaming a thief who was caught stealing two packs of Bud Light from a convenience store in the early morning, suggesting that he was too unrefined to realize Bud Light is an inappropriate “breakfast beer.” “This gentleman left the Lake Waccamaw Sam's [Pit] Stop last week at 6:30 a.m. and completely forgot to pay for the two [12-packs] of Bud Light he was carrying,” police wrote in a Facebook post salong with two surveillance photos of the thief. “This is very concerning to us. Bud Light is clearly not a breakfast beer.”The Police went on to ask for the community’s assistance in “identifying this gentleman so that we might educate him on the benefits of quality over quantity.” While they didn’t offer any specific examples of their preferred beers to pair with eggs, pancakes, or even Fruity Pebbles, police did indeed suggest that any type of “breakfast stout” — which are often brewed with notes of coffee,or chocolate — is a better choice than a lager.In the meantime, police offered a kind “dilly dilly!” to any Bud Light fans they may have offended with their remarks |

Beer From The Grave Many people dream of having their first legal drink when they finally turn 21, but the moment was extra special for one young man in Massachusetts. While his father had died several years prior, that didn’t stop him from buying his son his first beer.A Massachusetts man's 21st birthday turned extra special after finding out his late father left behind $10 so he could enjoy his first legal beer. Matt Goodman reached the milestone on Sunday and tweeted photos of him drinking a Bud Light at at bar in Attleboro and a $10 bill."Almost 6 years ago before my dad passed he gave my sister this 10$ bill to give to me on my 21st birthday so he could buy me my first beer, cheers pops havin this one for you!" he wrote. Casey told CBS Boston that over the years it was hard to keep the secret with her mom, but it was all worth it. "It's just something so typical that my dad would have done," she said. "To buy his first beer. Him and my dad were so close and he's had such a hard time anytime that a monumental moment comes up in his life that my dad's not there." ================================= |
