washington beer

You arrive at FedExField wearing your Washington football jersey. You notice you only have an hour to walk from your horrendous parking spot to your equally horrendous and overpriced seats (you’re watching Washington play after all). You squeeze through the crowd, finally reaching your destination. You take a seat, realizing you still have a few minutes until kick off, so you head out on a mission to find a cold beer, which will surely help you get through the next three hours of miserable football.

You purchase your beer, probably pay way too much, and head back to your seat. Upon the first sip, you realize something odd. There’s a World Cup label on the beer. The World Cup was months ago. You are drinking old, outdated beer.

Believe it or not, the scenario I just painted above is not all that far-fetched, because it most likely happened to thousands of Washington fans that attended Thursday night’s game against the New York Giants.

Need more proof? Here is the bottom of that same beer.

Of course, this wouldn’t be the first time this season Dan Snyder’s franchise has sold old beer to its fans.

And if you’re wondering how I know that beer is old, you can go ahead and type the code pictured above into Budweiser’s website. It’ll tell you the following:
