Bud Light’s latest ad is getting slammed online as the beer brand keeps garnering angry comments and a huge number of dislikes, with the company facing ire from both sides of the social aisle.

Released on the weekend of July 4, the latest ad, “Backyard Grunts with Travis Kelce,” features Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce with a group of men grunting as they crack open a can of Bud Light. On YouTube, it has gotten 2,187 comments, 256 likes and over 11,000 dislikes. Some of the comments on the ad are quite scathing. “So you went from a man pretending to be a little girl to now showing manly grunting people … to swing it the other way? You gotta lock your marketing team in a room with rabid dogs and toss the key,” said one user.
