Screw the Captain America Shield on Iron Man, I Found Pabst Blue Ribbon
People quite often go ga-ga for shit they see in the background of movies. You know, things that foretell future movies or subtle story lines. Lately people have been talking about Captain America’s shield on Iron Man. I love seeing those little subtleties, and being able to scream out “I watch the movie good”
Well today I say screw all that.
I saw the Indiana Jones movie the other day, and one awesome highlight for me was the fact that in the diner scene the people in the background were drinking none other than Pabst Blue Ribbon. Pabst is one of those understated cheap beers that is pretty awesome. Normally it comes in a can, and is really tough to find in a bottle(I’ve never seen it before). There it was, the Pabst Blue Ribbon bottle sitting on the table. To me that was the star of the movie.
So next time you head to the Cold Beer and Wine store buy a case of Pabst Blue Ribbon and give it a try. The label looks to me like a kitty litter logo, but it still is worth every penny.

You have seen nothing until you have seen this bottle of Pabst Blue Ribbon.
I grew up in that neighborhood and went to school around the corner from the brewery. The smell was horrible, especially during warm months. (just imagine it being 90F and a whole classroom full of puking 3rd graders)
But that bottle was the most awesome thing. At 60 feet tall it is probably the worlds largest beer bottle…and it had the Pabst Blue Ribbon label on it.
I can remember it being the one thing that always meant “we are almost home”, as we passed it on the highway.
Unfortunately they took it down a few years ago. I miss that damn bottle.
