@@@ CRESTED BUTTE, Colo. (CBS4/AP) - Bud Light鈥檚 controversial Whatever, USA festival in Crested Butte was a success, according to a town leader. Anheuser-Busch paid $500,000 to paint several blocks of a central street blue and otherwise temporarily revamp the town into fictional Whatever, USA, for its Up for Whatever campaign. Crested Butte Chief Marshal Tom Martin said the event went really well and there were only four arrests Saturday night.
We prepared for the worst and we got the best, Martin said. 鈥淚 ve lived here 37 years and this previous weekend was one <a href=http://www.aec-ist.com/css/Gucci-Discount-Wholesale-Shoes-Boat-Shoes-Cheap-Purse.html>Cheap Gucci Purse</a> of the coolest weekends I ve ever been here.
Despite some residents being opposed to the town allowing the Bud Light event in their town, Martin said he thought most people had a good time.
The majority of people here are really happy that it happened, he said.
However there were some problems after the event ended. The more than 1,000 people who flew in to the small Colorado resort town for the filming of the Anheuser-Busch s Bud Light commercial had problems leaving the party Sunday evening. The company said the travel delays stemmed from a large number of people trying to depart the Gunnison-Crested Butte Regional Airport after the two-day event. PHOTO GALLERY:
