Brand Marketing Bud Light Raises a Beer to Bromances in New ‘Famous Among Friends’ Spots New tagline kicks off friendship-focused campaignBy Christine Birkner|January 23, 2017Share By Christine Birkner|January 23, 2017Share Bud Light is paying homage to friendship with a new campaign from Wieden + Kennedy New York, which debuts the tagline, "Famous Among Friends." The 30- and 60-second spots, "Between Friends," depict big and small moments over the history of a friendship—from a best man speech to helping your friend move to competing together in a hot wing eating contest, all scored to Guns N' Roses "Sweet Child o' Mine." Budweiser similarly celebrated friendship with its "Grab Some Buds" campaign from Anomaly in 2010. Bud Light debuted the spot during this weekend's NFC and AFC championship games, and it will run a 60-second spot during this year's Super Bowl. During last year's Big Game, the brand kicked off an election-themed campaign, "The Bud Light Party" with spots starring Amy Schumer and Seth Rogen. Anheuser-Busch's Budweiser, Michelob Ultra and Busch also will be in the ad lineup for Super Bowl LI, with Busch making its first appearance in the Big Game.
