Eagle, Idaho — A local bar is stirring up controversy and national attention once again with a provocative offer that combines politics and a love for craft beer. The Old State Saloon, which gained notoriety last year for declaring a “Heterosexual Awesomeness Month,” has introduced a month-long promotion aimed at supporting Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Patrons who assist ICE in identifying and deporting undocumented immigrants can receive free beer for an entire month.

On Saturday, the Old State announced this unusual offer through a post on social media, capturing the attention of locals and online users alike. The bar stated that anyone willing to help ICE would be rewarded with free beer, prompting a rush of reactions across various platforms. The Department of Homeland Security even responded, acknowledging the unexpected partnership in a post that garnered over 3.7 million views.

Participants in the promotion are required to provide evidence, such as photos or videos, detailing their involvement in aiding ICE. Some patrons have already raised questions about the limits of the offer, including how many beers they could redeem in a day. The bar clarified that participants could claim two free beers daily for the month, and potentially more if they assist in deporting multiple individuals.

Among the first beneficiaries of this promotion was Ryan Spoon, a known figure in local Republican politics. Spoon celebrated his win with a craft beer and shared insights about his connection with the bar’s owner, emphasizing the community ties that are part of this initiative.

While the bar enjoys the spotlight, it has also faced a surge of backlash. Critics have flooded its social media with threats and negative comments, some even promising protests against the establishment. Old State Saloon has decided to engage with its critics directly, daring them to follow through on their threats and mockingly responding to the online vitriol.

In response to the initial wave of backlash, the bar escalated its campaign, branding December as “Merry Snitchmas.” With themed events planned throughout the month, the bar aims to attract patrons who align with its politically charged stance, including special offers for American citizens who report undocumented immigrants.

The promotion has created a divide, highlighting the wide-ranging opinions on immigration in the country. Supporters view the offer as bold and politically charged, while opponents are rallying against what they consider a harmful and divisive message. As the Old State Saloon continues to brew controversy and free beer, it remains to be seen how this campaign will unfold in the politically polarized atmosphere of Idaho and beyond.
