Miller Lite vs Bud

I was kinda bored today and was browsing around trying to find something interesting about the NASCAR world and finally came across something other than “Hendrick, the NASCAR team to beat.”  Obviously gambling is illegal unless you’re in Las Vegas, Atlantic City, or in an Indian Gaming Casino etc. (Had to say that)… but the Palms Resort Casino in Las Vegas has something new for you to bet on.  Miller Lite vs Bud!  Yeah that’s right!  They’re letting their customers bet on either Kurt Busch who is in the #2 Miller Lite car or Kasey Kahne who is in the #9 Budweiser car.  You’ll not only be able to bet on each race, but you’ll also be able to bet on the final standings at the end of the 2008 year.  Kurt Busch’s Miller Lite car has been given an 8.5 position favorite over Kasey Kahne’s Budweiser car this year.

There are a lot of factors though to look at especially this year.  Kurt Busch finished 9 positions better than the old Budweiser car previously driven by Dale Earnhardt Jr and 12 positions better than the new Budweiser driver Kasey Kahne.  Also Kasey Kahne has a whole new team and a whole new sponsor that could either be a benefit or a hinder.  I think it’s tough to call but they’re still giving Kurt Busch an 8.5 favorite which I think is plenty.  In my opinion I would put my money on the overall to go to Kurt Busch.  But if I were betting on each individual race I’d have to see how they qualified and who’s been better on that track in their previous years.Let’s do something fun!  I’m going to come up with a contest similar to this and give you guys a chance to win maybe a case of energy drinks or something cool.  Check back with me over the week and I’ll have something posted.

But to any of you who plan on betting on the new line in Vegas let me know how you do.  Who would you bet on for the Daytona 500?  I’d have to go with Kasey Kahne only because he was incredible in Testing leading up to the 500.

   To be honest, I don’t know a damn thing about NASCAR. Just giving you back a thumbs up. Nice blog.

   I won’t be betting but I would like to send positive happy thoughts to Kasey Kahne simply because I don’t like Kurt Busch. ~~~~~

   In reference to actual beer (because I felt it should be mentioned), I love Miller Lite! It is a shame that I DO NOT like Kurt Busch! If I had to bet, I would grudgingly pick Kurt Busch although I prefer Kasey Kahne.

   It’s tough because I’m a Bud loyalist, but I also like Kurt Busch and think that he currently has the better team. I have even expressed that I think he may be a favorite to the win the title this year.

   The 8.5 spots is tempting though. Kahne would have to have a lot better year than last year though.

   Maybe theres a reason that a Busch is driving for Miller Lite. He knows a real beer when he sees one.

    Your “marketing” assignment is interesting because it is really more of a “sales” assignment. In any event, comparisons of quality in this case would only be one of many arguments you would have to convince the bar owner with. In reality, these two “lager’ beers are identical in quality, and are chosen by the consumer
