Hopefully, It Will Be an Old Style Ad Now
Big news from the North Side of Chicago. No, not that the magic number for the Cubs to clinch their division is down to two. The iconic Budweiser ad on top of 3701 N. Kenmore is no more. At least for the time being. It seems that the Koning (Flemish/Dutch/Belgian for King) of Beers allowed their lease for the ad space to lapse. Well, that’s what the new owners of the building say. Budweiser claims that they were never given the appropriate invoice, as required by the lease agreement, by the new owners in order to renew on time. Now don’t get me started on how a St. Louis beer company is the “official” beer of the Chicago Cubs (I still say it should be all Old Style all the time) but with the postseason coming soon (hopefully) to Wrigley it will certainly take a little bit away from the atmosphere not to have the Budweiser sign enticing Cubs fans around the world to have a cold one.
