    I'll not provide the author of this statement. I have no doubt it is true.

    I do think Yeti had a wake up call .. 3.5 million wake up calls

    Yeti should be reminded that their products are sold through Bass Pro and Cabela's... Both sell guns, last time I checked.

    Stocked perhaps, sold requires someone willing to hold their nose and make a purchase

    Yeah, I'm part of the silent majority. We are conservative patriots who love our country and it's constitution.
    When we are offended, we don't cry and whine about it, or have a meltdown, we just don't open our wallets!

    Yeti does, however; get their money up front, when these stores purchase inventory....

    True, but when inventory doesn't sell it also doesn't get restocked. It eventually gets closed out and replaced by something that does sell. I'm sorry the actions of Yeti impact these businesses who do business in good faith. Except, of course, for Dickhead's*

    *Sorry, it's my auto-correct again. Every time i type Dickhead's it changes it to "Dickhead's". See? It did it right there, too.

    Too bad NRA and others that support the NRA have printed 10s of thousands brochures advertising coming events with Yeti Coolers.

    Then again what a way to spread the truth for in fact, Yeti did cancel orders, not just replace programs.

    Here, in case you haven't seen it, is the NRA's response to yeti's claim that the NRA-ILA "lied";


    If it wasn’t bad enough that YETI dropped The NRA Foundation as a client, now they’re calling us liars because we informed our members and friends of their actions.

    The NRA Foundation has over 1,100 “Friends of NRA Committees” around the country. These committees host banquets and auctions that are attended by hundreds of thousands of guests each year. These events raise funds to support charitable causes and programs. The NRA Foundation supports the needs of youth programs for education, safety and training, as well as law enforcement needs, shooting ranges and conservation programs.

    For many years we have purchased coolers from YETI for our auctions. We have auctioned off many thousands of YETI coolers each year. YETI recently dropped The NRA Foundation as a client. Not only would they not take our orders for more coolers, they forced us to cancel orders already in the system that they said they would not fill.

    Three days after we notified you of YETI’s decision to drop The NRA Foundation, YETI issued their prepared statement in which they admit they dropped us but claim they simply eliminated the discount program and dropped other (unnamed) organizations as well. That’s news to us.

    Perhaps the people writing YETI’s damage control statements are not talking to the people who enforced YETI’s decisions and refused our orders. We had even offered the YETI Roadie in one of our sponsorship levels for 2018 – which we’ve had to cancel.

    We told you the truth.

    YETI’s attempts at damage control is to say our statement is not accurate. Shame on you again YETI. You know you made a mistake. A big one. Now you must live with your mistake.

    If one were of a crude mind, one might say they've pissed in their own well. That will take several years, if not longer, to leach out the contamination.

    I won't shed a tear if Yeti goes under. They torpedoed their own ship.
