#BoycottBudwiser Has A Hilarious And Obvious Blunder

You’d think people would change mistakes before letting something go viral, but that definitely didn’t happen here.
Following Budweiser’s powerful ad on their founder’s immigration to America, the hashtag “#BoycottBudwiser” went viral on Twitter in an attempt to boycott a business that seemingly disagreed with president Donald Trump’s immigration policy.
However, there’s a key error in the hashtag that may have caused it to trend even more – Budweiser is spelled wrong.
Because of that spelling error, about as many tweets about boycotting Budweiser using the hashtag surfaced as have tweets criticizing hashtag users of it in the first place.
Only in America can #boycottbudwiser be trending. The people who complain about pressing 1 for English can’t even spell America’s beer.

To friends tweeting #BoycottBudwiser:
1. Spellcheck before you hashtag
2. Don’t be petty like @ShaunKing
3. Their ad was made before the ban pic.twitter.com/xTnQkYItet— Philip DeFranco (@PhillyD) February 6, 2017
If you’re going to post a tweet about boycotting Budweiser (no judging here), you’d be none the “wiser” to check your spelling before posting your hashtags.
