1-Richard Overton woke up one day, and after going through life, he switched on the TV.

Surprisingly, he encountered an ad for Anheuser Busch’s Beer.

It featured women in bikinis on tropical islands who were chatting with men over a drink of Beer. Impressed by the ad, he must have realised the benefits of beer and probably went to the nearest store to try the heavenly nectar.

Spoiler alert, nothing happened. No women were near him. No water to swim in. The gall! How could Anheuser Busch promote the idea that fantasies could become true! Oh no! They were still at large, duping all of America and stealing their innocence.

Worst of all, he realised that alcohol was dangerous. Scary and so unexpected!

Valiantly, he decided to fight for the rights of beer drinkers worldwide. On June 6 1991, our hero sued Anheuser Busch for $10000 because the Tv commercials “involving tropical settings, and beautiful women had caused him physical and mental injury, emotional distress and financial loss.

The poor man! He must be scarred!

Remember kids, BEER IS BAD. Especially Anheuser Busch.

Unfortunately, he didn’t win. However, we will never forget him. Blessed be that man.
