Ross Hopkins still likes to drink Bud, even though he says a brief tryst with a Coors beer cost him his job at a Budweiser distributor.

Hopkins, 41, is suing American Eagle Distributing Co., saying the company wrongly fired him for drinking Coors in a bar two years ago.

You gotta stand up for what's right. I mean, allowing that guy to go on drinking Coors could cost him his taste buds down the road.

Would be cool if Coors paid for his legal bills.

If he was in a bar it was probably on his own time.

Dont see how they had the right to fire him for that.

Oh well it says he "likes" to drink bud.(GROSS)

Shows he doesnt have much in the brains or taste dept.
so maybe they just needed a reason to get rid of him

Good idea, Diablo- would give them some great PR. You should suggest it- you might get a case of Coors for the idea....although, as a Bud drinker, the only way I can drink Coors is if I soak a battery in it for a couple of hours.

Yeah. Errrr, um hey! Thats not right. I mean, why that specific set of descriptors? What do wife-beater shirts and ... and the star thing ... and bein a redneck, and all that, what do those have to do with drinking Coors?

I SWEAR TO GOD, I ONLY DRANK ........... well ........ a few I guess ..........

Oh the horror. I swear I thought once you quit it would get better! I mean, I havent touched a Coors in almost 2 years.........well, except for that one at the Outback that night ............... but it was a happy hour special! Thats the only reason! The beer belly, the wife-beater, the badge ............. IT'S ALL COINCIDENTAL! IT DOESN'T MEAN A DAMN THING! DON'T LISTEN TO HIM!!!

It's pretty standard in the drink business. Try working for Coca-Cola and drinking a Pepsi or Dr.Pepper. They will fire you in a heartbeat. If you work for one of the major companies they require you to be brand loyal as a term of employment.
