I know what you’re thinking, but it’s not photoshopped:
Sophisticated graffiti artists have left their mark near downtown Houston.
Someone covered up a billboard on La Branch at Winbern with a poster featuring a picture of Jesus Christ holding a Budweiser can. The company that leases the billboard believes vandals made the poster at home and then pasted it on top of the ad that’s supposed to be there.
It shows Jesus holding a Budweiser in between the phrases “Jesus, King of Jews” and “Jesus, King of Beers.”“I thought that was just crazy,” said commuter Jose Cazares. “It looks professional too.”

Good ad! They are both supposed to cause a state of euphoria, but what they do is weaken the mind to the truth.

15 Dave // Mar 1, 2008 at 2:53 am
Funny! A great ad for something so instantly recognizable.
…but who’s the prick on the left of the poster?

Lol esther christian. You actually believe the world is 6000 years old, and that Noah gathered all the dinosaurs on his ark? Nice.
18 Lord Felipe // Mar 1, 2008 at 11:50 am
Merlot, 2 buck charlie, Maker’s Mark whiskey, Samuel Adams. Mohammed, don’t be afriad to sip a little sangria mixed with bits of oranges and apples. And, maybe some lemon.

drunken jesus when your depth reception allows you to walk on water (it is not water it is dirt)
20 lol // Mar 1, 2008 at 6:24 pm
oh and esther christian you are an idiot wow people are getting stupider it must be all the lead we use
21 Boogydood // Mar 1, 2008 at 9:39 pm
Nah, I always thought Jesus was more of a wine guy.
Also, this totally isn’t a place for religious/anti-religious discussion. People like Roach can GTFO.
22 DrawkwarD // Mar 2, 2008 at 9:09 am
It would be better if it said “King of Jews, King of Brews” oh well i guess not everyone can be that clever.
23 Dad // Mar 2, 2008 at 8:17 pm
I just love all you haters.
24 dogboy // Mar 3, 2008 at 9:39 am
esther.. Y can’t U stop using letters instead of the actual words? Can you understand the concept of a JOKE? there’s no hate here, many of us love both beer and jesus AND we think this sign is quite funny. Now stop plopping your morality on the rest of us, and stop using letters instead of whole words.. it makes you look like you’re about 12 or 13 years old.

“drunken jesus when your depth reception allows you to walk on water (it is not water it is dirt)” — lol
wow people are getting stupider — lol
yeah, it looks like you must be explaining this whole getting “stupider” thing through example.
26 Rian // Mar 3, 2008 at 10:55 pm
Praise the lord and pass the beer. God that just brings a tear to my eye. Nice job, got to give the guys who did this a lot of credit.
27 wannabedesi // Mar 3, 2008 at 11:13 pm
It’s too postmodern for me to get it.
Now if it said something like King of a good merlot…then I might laugh cause it would actually make sense.
However, what’s with calling Jesus a prick? Don’t agree with Christians or any religion, just don’t be purile about it.

It’s Ron English.

29 VIC // Mar 6, 2008 at 11:24 am
um…I don’t think they were implying that JESUS was the king of beers but rather BUDWEISER is the king of beers.
Am I the only one that has realised this?
30 oldster // Mar 6, 2008 at 4:09 pm
bur surely the old testiment proves that Jusus wasn’t a regular beer drinker, didn’t drunk beer. wasnot king of beers. so it cain’t be true.
31 carlotta // Mar 6, 2008 at 11:25 pm
hahahaaa. that’s cute.
but it’s one of those things that you need a sense of humor to appreciate. i guess some people are severely lacking in that department. oh well, their loss.
32 phil // Mar 7, 2008 at 3:11 am
thanks SP, i am glad someone gave credit where credit is due. I was about to tell who it was.
33 joey // Mar 8, 2008 at 4:16 pm
thats outrageous. it is totally against what christians believe in christ. i 100% do not support this. whoever made the billboard should be shot in the face!
34 Aubeard // Mar 9, 2008 at 1:30 am
So I guess shooting people in the face is NOT against what Christians believe?
Doesn’t really come as a surprise.
35 hmmm // Mar 9, 2008 at 3:33 am
I see joey is a true Christian, loving his enemies and all….
But back 2 the topic…
I do agree that Jesus was more of a wine guy and WOULD NOT TRUST his choice of beer. An ad made by Satan perhaps?
36 mtk // Mar 25, 2008 at 2:11 am
american classics!
37 jaaan // Mar 25, 2008 at 2:13 am
hmmm: HA HA HA! an ad made by satan! that is so funny! and joey is hostile!!
