It only causes cancer in California. Don't drink it in Cali and you'll be fine.

Let's be clear. Budweiser is NOT beer.

Budweiser is NOT beer.

Whatever it is they make 11,000,000,000 bottles per year of it.

A real incentive would be the 2nd and 4th place teams have to split it, can't leave the country until it is consumed.

70 million people voted for a fat, orange-faced insurrectionist. You got a point, or is that just what's under your hat.

If each of them had a Bud every other day, that would almost cover it.

Not a fan of Budweiser at all, but they deserve to be compensated for this, and FIFA should arguably pay punitive damages.
