~60% of the final price of beer is brewer + distributor + retail margin. So at ~$2/can retail, a single 12oz beer costs Bud ~$.80. Greater Philly pop is 1.5M. If we assume 30% take rate here (which is crazy high, but it's Philly), ballpark cost of this to Bud = $360k. Brilliant.

Tonight - almost 17 months from the cancelation of the first NBA game - we saw thousands of @Bucks fans celebrating together. But it can end just as quickly as before. So if you haven’t already, go get vaccinated, and let’s permanently return to these goosebump-level moments!

Companies should consider tweeting post-meeting health updates. “Mike gave it 52 mins of Cole’s meeting, but heavy fatigue set in after that.” Come to think of it, this is a terrible idea.

Good reminder for anyone who gives presentations (applies to all - product, ops, sales, marketing): telling the story around content is often more important than the content itself. Like Romo, Nance, Buck, etc., put in the hours it takes to master the topic, then practice. A lot.

Despite the @Buccaneers ' blowout #SuperBowl win last night, CBS' Jim Nantz and Tony Romo have drawn praise for helping deliver an entertaining broadcast. CBS lead game producer Jim Rikhoff said, "We had an A-minus telecast for a C-minus game."
