BJ Pitching Malt Liquor


The collector's edition 24-ounce can of Mickey's Malt Liquor.

BJ Penn has joined a short list of MMA fighters that are pitchmen for Mickey's.  Malt Liquor has a fine history of pitchmen outside MMA with the likes of Billy D. Williams and ICE CUBE.  Who else misses Ice Cube talking about the smooth taste of St. Ides?

In my younger days I was known to partake in a 40 oz or two and must say if BJ is going to sell malt liquor he made a great choice. Mickey's is the Rolls Royce of malt liquor.  Forrest Griffin once graced the 24oz tall can of Mickey's and he seems to be doing OK.

          One of the reasons I have such affection for the sport of MMA is that though it has definitely become a mainstream talking point, it is very rough around the edges.  BJ Penn is a Kobe Bryant type superstar in his sport and is selling a beer that graces the shelves of fine establishments as Eddies Liquor, you all have them in your area you know places that their smell is part of the charm.

MMA is the wild west of sports. I hope all you fans out there remember theses days that our sport was really just finding its form, finding its place in society and the stars endorsing things like Mickey's.
