In reply to the discussion: Super bowl ad. [View all]DENVERPOPS
(11,674 posts)43. I am 75
and I saw this same shit time and time again in my 7-12 grades.........and here in Denver !!!!!!!!!!!!!
When I was much younger, Joseph Coors, (Yes that Coors), would gather a bunch of his buddies dressed in white, drag a huge wooden cross up to the top of Table Top mountain, above their Golden beer distillery, and light it on fire so everyone in Denver could see it...
Happened every last Sunday, of every month I think my mother told me.......
