Longtime Boston Red Sox third baseman Wade Boggs spent the majority of his life racking up the credibility that eventually made him a first-ballot Hall of Famer.
Now, the all-time great is giving back with a free beer in partnership with Pabst Blue Ribbon.
Boggs previously made claims against the beer company, saying they stole his likeness to create the character "Cool Blue." After making several demands toward the company, he has reached an agreement to become an official spokesperson.
To celebrate this partnership, PBR is offering fans a beer on Boggs with a rebate of up to $12 off to honor his record as a twelve-time All-Star.
Fans can claim their rebate from now until July 5th in select stores throughout the country (in states where it is legal). More updates on Wade Boggs' activities as Pabst Blue Ribbon’s spokesperson will roll out throughout the year.
“I’m delighted to be embarking on a new chapter in my relationship with Pabst Blue Ribbon,” Boggs said. “While I can’t disclose the terms of our agreement, I can say I am thrilled that Pabst Blue Ribbon is giving baseball fans everywhere the chance to have a few cold beers on Cool Blue this summer.”
