Just saw it on the Chiefs game and it is touching. Call me a skeptic, but I would not be confident that Budweiser didn't want to make any money from it. After all they didn't have to identify the company. That is what is called an image enhancer in the ad biz, and it is designed to get the company good-will, and in turn additional business.
