[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cracker Barrel CEO told Bud Light to hold her beer.

Black Rock controls about 16% of Cracker Barrel stock, and installed a new CEO that’s down with BR’s agenda of destroying anything seen as traditional Americana - like Cracker Barrel.

So the new CEO took the old white country store clerk character off the logo - to subtly communicate to the Cracker Barrel customer demographic (who tends to resemble the guy on the logo) that “we got rid of him and we’re getting rid of you next, because even though you spend money in our restaurants, we don’t like you and wish you weren’t here”.

And not surprisingly, their stock is off 12% now.

So weird, right? You attack your customers, and they have gall to get upset about it!

honestly, if CB's main demographic was old timey white southern shop owners, it seems like a dead-end market. [/quote]

Yeah, I mean who wants to have a customer base of 50,000,000 people? What could they possibly be thinking? Clearly they didn’t go to an Ivy. [/quote]

There are 50m elderly white southern shopkeepers?

I'm not a statistician, but that seems... unlikely?[/quote]
