Beer and football go hand in hand. I'm surprised Amazon wouldn't allow the ads

Beer ads were missing from Amazon's 'Thursday Night Football' game broadcasts. Turns out, they're banned.

Amazon's advertising guidelines say ads that encourage, glamorize, or show excessive drinking aren't allowed in the US and other countries.

The question is...

If you pay for a subscription to this, why are there any ads at all?

Also, beer ads haven't been funny in decades

Eh, paying for cable in general is one thing, but does HBO or SHOW run ads during boxing matches? No, they don't, because you bought the package to not be subject to that.

AMZ needs to rethink this model.

They could partner up w any number of gambling sites to fill time + NFL could experiment w game time stuff here

UFC PPVs cost over $100 each and the announcers spend like 25% of the time doing ad reads for alcohol and other stuff

Here is a game you can play that’s really boring but you could even gamble on it. Guess which insurance company will be first at next commercial break.

Liberty liberty liberty liberty

 

[carolinakid]

dont you just hate those liberty ads

 

[Tanko]

Worst here is when they have the local ad spot in the mix on NFL or CFB games. 100% of the ads for local stuff are Lawyers who will represent you and "SUE TO GET YOU THE MONEY YOU DESERVE". SMH.

Disgusting POS's.
