Bud Light abandons McGrath.
In the wake of Jeremy McGrath's recent retirement his main sponsor, Bud Light, has apparently decided to pull out of the seven-time champ's farewell tour with immediate effect.
McGrath is set to attend all rounds of the 2003 US Supercross championship to say farewell to fans, sign autographs, and be a part of the opening ceremonies.
But instead of being in his own KTM/Bud Light rig - as he was at the Anaheim season-opener - McGrath will probably begin working out of one of the Parts Unlimited or Red Bull KTM semis, starting this weekend at Phoenix.

Bud Light may be looking at another rider to support, but their choices are limited since the company does not like to work with athletes younger than 25 years old, and so it looks like they'll leave Supercross altogether.
