Yeti cuts ties to NRA

    First, everyone keep their shirt on. Most of the companies that have abandoned the NRA will eventually come back and reestablish connections. Presently it is all about public perception so let those companies bend over backwards to convince the anti-gunners that they are disassociating themselves with those nasty "guns". As far as I'm concerned, Yeti can go kiss a pig because their products are outrageously overpriced to begin with so I don't care if they shut down completely to appease the anti-gunners. :)

    Second; Fuck them "coming back"... in or out... you can not sit a straddle the fence and have it both ways.
    They are either For or Against The 2nd Amendment.

    I recall reading that Delta's program had very few people taking advantage of the discount. I would not be surprised if most of those discontinuing the discounts checked, saw the usage was low to non-existent and are simply virtue signaling for dollars.

    Yep, as do truly bad marketing decisions like this.

    Is there documentation of these thousands of calls and emails daily anywhere? Or is it a perceived pressure on the companies?

    Dunno, I doubt a lot of the sticker people care about the NRA as much as looking cool :D

    If they wanted to look cool they'd have kept their OAKLEY Thermonuclear Protection windshield stickers. :D

    Fuck you! Everyone still rolls in their 1986 Z-24 Cavaliers with day-glo triple wipers! :crackup:

    I did try double wipers once, they sucked. New gen silicone is so much nicer - and not as tacky looking :D

    Dunno, but a big fat *69 sticker will be going over the logo on the cooler.

    Without knowing any facts about them or their customer data, how would you know it’s a bad marketing decision?

    Anecdotally, was at the store in Austin yesterday and that shit was flying off the shelves.

    That's not what was said in the report. I would agree if it were only Delta, but it's a lot larger than the alphabet people taking on Chick-Fil-A.

    Yeti will be sold at Toys R Us this time next year.

    See what I did there?

    True but timing matters. Even if their intent was not to boycott the NRA due to the camera hogg it will be perceived as a such. For them not to consider that says they either did intend to submit to the children or are stupid.
