2012 will make the first year in 58 years that the infamous (and beautiful) Budweiser Clydesdales will not appear in the Parade Of Roses.
“We’ve truly enjoyed being a part of the Rose Parade and appreciate the great work on our floats over the years,” Rob McCarthy, an Anheuser-Busch vice president, told the Pasadena Star-News in a statement.
Why? Apparently the company is pulling out of events like this to be apart of new events to better target beer drinkers. [KTLA]
