Shane Gillis' Bud Light Dilemma: Seen With Rival Beer
17 Aug
Summary
- Shane Gillis, Bud Light spokesperson, was filmed with Dos Equis.
- The incident occurred at an MLS game between Austin FC and FC Dallas.
- Dos Equis social media account trolled Gillis over the video.
Comedian Shane Gillis, known for his Bud Light advertisements, recently found himself in a peculiar situation at an MLS game. While seated next to Matthew McConaughey during a match between Austin FC and FC Dallas, Gillis was observed with a cup of Dos Equis, a major competitor to Bud Light's parent company, Anheuser-Busch.
The moment was captured in a video clip shared by the official MLS account, which quickly garnered attention. The Dos Equis social media team even playfully acknowledged the comedian. However, it remains unconfirmed whether Gillis actually consumed the Dos Equis, leaving room for plausible deniability regarding the beer's placement.
Bud Light has been working to rebuild its brand image, making this unscripted moment a potential challenge. The situation could resolve quietly, escalate with further brand interaction, or be turned into a humorous moment by Gillis himself. The outcome is anticipated with interest, especially given Gillis's role in upcoming advertising for major sports events like the NCAA and NFL.
