Video: Budweiser accidentally gets political in Super Bowl ad
(KRON) – Budweiser claims it accidentally got political in its Super Bowl ad this year.
The commercial tells the story of the company’s co-founder Adolphus Busch who emigrated from Germany to the United States.
You can see Busch sailing through storms to reach the United States. When he arrives, people tell him to go back home.
Busch then meets Eberhard Anheuser.
The ad comes after President Donald Trump issued his controversial immigration executive order. The executive order prompted protests across the country.
Budweiser says its Super Bowl ad is just a coincidence and that he commercial was just focusing on the common story of an immigrant.Video courtesy of CNN / Budweiser Canada
