Expired World Cup Budweiser beers being sold at FedEx Field
http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-shutdown-corner/redskins-selling-expired-world-cup-budweiser-beers-at-fedex-field-161517369.htmlAs if Dan Snyder didn't have enough controversy on his plate — getting leveled in this season's "South Park" premiere and again by the "Daily Show" a day later for his insistence on keeping a racially charged mascot — the Washington (NFL team owner) is washing down that crow with expired World Cup beer.
In a nifty piece of investigative journalism by The Washington Post's Dan Steinberg, we learned the (team is) indeed still selling the since expired Budweisers at FedEx Field.
As Steinberg notes upon plugging the fan's almost four-month-old code into Budweiser's "Track Your Bud" website, the "Bud has passed its freshness date" — a warning that is accompanied by the brewmaster's promise to "buy you a fresh Budweiser. Please contact us."...
This isn't the first time the (team) hawked old concessions, since — as Steinberg again notes — the team once sold peanuts from an out-of-business airline. Daniel Snyder, forever antiquated.

Sorry. No way to redact the R-word from the link.

since Washington was the last NFL team to integrate. Who would have thought? 
h/t mad for the history lesson.
The Washington No Names could definitely use a new owner. Although I do have to say that South Park was awesome.
