Mount Airy Casino Resort Is Excited to Welcome the Budweiser Clydesdales
Mount Pocono, PA – May 20, 2016 – Mount Airy Casino Resort, a destination offering incomparable casino gaming, picturesque settings, lavish ambiance, exceptional fine dining, luxury accommodations, outdoor activities and unrivalled amenities, is excited to welcome the World Famous Budweiser Clydesdales to the property Saturday, June 18.
Free of cost and open to the public, Mount Airy would like to encourage all to join in on experiencing the presence of this American icon.Join in on welcoming the special breed to the Poconos from 1PM to 3PM outside of the casino entrance, after the Clydesdales walk the perimeter of the property.
The Budweiser Clydesdales have been the symbol of Anheuser-Busch for more than 75 years. Formally introduced in 1933 to celebrate the Prohibition for beer, aneight-horse hitch of the special breed paraded in St. Louis, MO carrying the first case of post-Prohibition beer from the local Anheuser-Busch brewery making the special breed an icon. Today the Budweiser Clydesdales are just shy of royalty to the American brewery and require a certain size, color and disposition requirements to be a part of the hitch. At about 6 feet tall and 2,000 pounds, you’ll find yourself speechless when standing next to this world-famous group of special breed horses amongst the beautiful Pocono scape.
“We’re thrilled to bring the legendary Clydesdales to Mount Airy for guests and the public to enjoy,” stated John Cletsu, Executive Vice President and General Manager of Mount Airy Casino Resort. “We are truly committed to providing the highest quality of an experience to our guests and being able to welcome the special breed that is the Budweiser Clydesdales, we know it will be an unforgettable experience for all.”
