Nineteen years have passed since the devastating terrorist attack on September 11, yet the memory remains vivid. The tragic loss of nearly 3,000 lives continues to evoke sorrow and grief, but also an unwavering sense of patriotism.
In the aftermath of the attack, Americans stood united against those who sought to harm the nation. The world mourned alongside them, offering empathy and support.
Amidst this somber period, Budweiser’s poignant commercial left an indelible mark on hearts. The emotional advertisement featured the iconic Clydesdales horses navigating New York City’s iconic landmarks – the Statue of Liberty and Brooklyn Bridge – before arriving at the site where the Twin Towers once stood.
With heads bowed in reverence, the Clydesdales paid a silent tribute to the victims. The message was clear: never forget, and never let such tragedy occur again.
Initially aired in 2002, the commercial reappeared on the 10th anniversary of 9/11. Paul Chibe, Anheuser-Busch’s VP-marketing, stated, “Our 9/11 Clydesdales tribute ad holds a special place in our hearts… We re-aired it to support the National September 11 Memorial & Museum fundraising campaign, serving as a reminder to never forget those lost and affected.”

This timeless tribute continues to evoke emotions, reminding us of the importance of collective strength and remembrance. As we reflect on that fateful day, we honor the lives lost and reaffirm our commitment to unity and peace.
