    This is objectively a good thing, but I can’t help but worry that this’ll be the new target of bomb threats with the way the political climate down there is right now.

    Stay safe, stay strong, never forget pride was a riot.

    I’m going to send this headline back in time to 2010 and see what people make of it. Imagine making sense of it a year ago lol.

      Garth has always supported LGBTQ, so it shouldn’t come as much of a surprise.

      Just listen to We Shall be Free, released in 1992.

    He and Trisha put on a good show. I saw them perform in a conservative state right after Trump was elected. Trisha wore rainbow items and it was clear the environment was one of support.

    I don’t even like Bud Light, it’s a damn shame such a mediocre beer became the focus of a silly controversy. I started buying it when I went on beer runs just to show my support haha

      I can’t for the life of me understand why people are so bent out of shape about a brand supporting the trans community. Hate is their whole identity

        They just want to be the ones in power so they can indiscriminately shit on anyone. As a brown man I’m deeply uncomfortable. I’m seeing a lot of similar rhetoric thrown around after 9/11 that made my life a living hell for a while. Frick

    Garth continues to have friends in low places!*

    Glad to hear such a forward stance on his bar. I haven’t kept up with country music for a while but I believe he still draws quite the crowd and maintained their respect as a country music legend. Anyone on the out about this won’t be missed.

    *(This is a reference to one of his songs! It’s one of my favorites to drunk karaoke. )
