Did Budweiser Pay Peyton Manning To Mention Them After He Won Super Bowl?
After quarterback Peyton Manning helped the Denver Broncos win Super Bowl 50, he told CBS reporter Tracy Wolfson.:
“I’m going to take some time to reflect. I got a couple priorities first. I want to go kiss my wife and my kids, I want to go hug my family. I’m going to drink a lot of Budweiser.”
People began speculating that Manning had been paid to plug the brand.
But a Budweiser representative chimed in to say that they did not pay Manning to endorse Budweiser, adding they “were surprised and delighted that he did.”
Hi Internet. For the record, Budweiser did not pay Peyton Manning to mention Budweiser tonight. We were surprised and delighted that he did.
