Boy...you guys are a going to be a thirsty bunch....if you're going to boycott PBR for sponsoring this tournament don't forget to boycott:
Anheuser-Busch...they are sponsoring the Striper Cup
Narragansett, Harpoon, Boston Beer Company....oh and Pabst too...they sponsor the Martha's Vineyard Derby....and no coffee either...Keurig is a sponsor as well
and lets not even go down the road of all the Tackle/Gear manufacturers that sponsor these tournaments....everybody going to boycott them as well
Boycotting Pabst is like giving up liver for lent
Scottw has the right idea...get organized and present alternatives.
All the Block Island Tourism Committee sees is the opportunity to turn this into their version of the MV Derby...and look at the money that generates for the MV locals during that tourney...its a no-brainer for them. They need to know that their are other alternatives to a tournament that will bring in the same revenue to the island
