The start of the NFL season is about a month away, and Bud Light is celebrating with special beer cans adorned with team logos and colors.
The company announced on Thursday, Aug. 7, the return of its limited-edition NFL team cans that will highlight 27 sponsored teams across the league. There are 32 teams in the NFL, meaning five teams will not be represented on the cans.
These five teams are:
Chicago Bears
Dallas Cowboys
Green Bay Packers
Las Vegas Raiders
Minnesota Vikings
Bud Light says this season’s cans feature a “sleek new look” and prominently showcase team logos, official team colors, and jersey-inspired retro stripes wrapping the top and bottom of each can. Each can also includes a QR code giving fans access to content and exclusive experiences like VIP tailgates, game tickets, and one-of-a-kind merch drops.
Bud Light debuts commercial starring Peyton Manning
In addition to the NFL team cans, Bud Light has also partnered with legendary quarterback Peyton Manning on a new commercial, titled “Parachute,” that highlights how far fans will go – or free-fall – for a Bud Light.
The spot depicts Manning skydiving into a football stadium as part of the NFL airman brigade. Manning changes course towards what he thinks is an ice-cold Bud Light, but instead crashes into a realistic stadium billboard, according to a news release from Bud Light.
