NoiceMinor TJ: Just watched this ad from America, cynicism was put to one side for a second as I felt it was actually quite touching...and then the end came up (Def NSFW because of sponsors on the site.)

The sponsors were the best bit Vintage The badgers took my sanity... and my TV,

That cannot be genuine...Perhaps I have too much faith in human kind, but that must have been doctored.
EDIT: Woo to the pic as well.

I suspect the words have been altered.Budweiser does seem to be keen to involve itself with sending a message of thanks to american troops. But not in a flippant way like that. But I may be wrong. From their website:
Anheuser-Busch will air a 60-second “salute” television ad during the broadcast of the Super Bowl to honor those who serve our country.
So I expect that's what we've just seen, and I kind of doubt those were the original words.

I heard of an incident like that at an airport-- but this was a staged and professionally produced "reproduction", with many different camera angles and no doubt a number of takes. No way a whole studio full of equipment just happened to be there.
So it might be in the "fake but accurate" category, with changed words at the end.

That's 95% realIt was a Super Bowl advert, I seen it I tell ya, seen it with me own two eyes!
It just said "Thank You" at the end though, the non-beer drinkers bit was added
