Even though it’s been over 15 years, most of us can remember September 11th like it was yesterday. It was a time of great sorrow for our country, but also a time of patriotism and unity. Americans from all walks of life came together to show the world that no matter what happens, we are a country that stands together.
American brand Budweiser was no exception to this patriotism, airing a commercial so emotional it brought grown men to tears.
The patriotic commercial shows Budweiser’s signature Clydesdales making their way through New York City. They pass the Statue of Liberty, cross the Brooklyn Bridge, and finally pause in a park overlooking the city’s skyline.
The commercial ends on an emotional note, showing the Clydesdales bowing their heads in respect – a tribute to where the Twin Towers once stood. Watch the video below to see the original version!
What do you think ?

I think those horses are a symbol of American people some of our history. Good for Budweiser

If it aired constantly, it would loss the power of the message. It’s like Elton John singing Candle In the Wind once for Princess Di. It’s an in the moment thing you will never forget.

People tend to forget animals do feel grief and love, and YES this needs to be shown again and again to remind us what happened and who did this to us!
