Is 'Anti-Woke' Bar in Florida Mocking Pulse Victims With 49-Cent Buds? [View all]
An establishment in Florida has come under fire after seemingly offering a promotion that celebrates the deaths of 49 people in the tragic Pulse Nightclub massacre in an attempt to make fun of liberals.
The bar, MoonCricket Grille in Winter Garden, posted a flier to its Facebook page advertising 49-cent Bud Light bottles, urging patrons to “take one for the team,” noting, “It’s okay if you want to buy a bottle and have it poured down the drain.”
The promotion was for May 31, the day before Pride Month.
People on Facebook discovered the advertisement and called out the bar for being insensitive.
