Steven Slater, you know the airline steward who became peeved and exited the plane via the emergency slide, well reportedly before he made his grand exit, he grabbed two beers.
Those beers were made by Blue Moon. When that part of the story was reported, it seemed like the beer company was going to be getting a lot of free publicity. Well, it looks the company wants no part of it.
A spokesman from the company gave the following statement to TMZ, “We have not been asked nor do we plan to promote our brand in this manner for the sake of publicity.
There were some very serious allegations made surrounding this incident and our company is not in the business of trivializing public safety for publicity or potential financial gain.”
It looks like the company is looking to separate themselves from Slater. This is probably a good move because reportedly, Slater’s story about being berated by an irate traveler before taking the emergency exit, has more holes in it them Swiss cheese.
