    Didn't see a thread on this yet

    Never really felt "any kind of way" towards the ads but the guy seemed like a decent dude

    I forgot he was the guy who took the Tranny away from Mack in It's Always Sunny. 36, way too young. RIP funny dude.

    Is there a difference between Miller lite and Miller high life? Serious question.

    Haha, sort of... It's like Budweiser vs bud light etc., Miller has more carbs/calories than Miller lite, so different branding/commercials (but same parent co). Obviously beer snobs or pro microbrewery guys will tell you it's all the same, but it's almost like Coke vs somewhat Diet Coke. Both still have ~4-5% alcohol.

    Anyway, wow, 36 is pretty damn young... Can't believe that, I mean if natural causes etc.

    Um no.

    There is Miller, Miller Lite as the "premium" beers.

    Miller high life is the lower level beer. There is a Miller high life lite.

    Like Busch to Bud

    Yes. The whole appeal of Miller High Life is how cheap it is. It's garbage tier beer, though Miller Lite isn't exactly winning any best beer competitions.

    He was in a lot of TV shows as well, that guy. Pretty sure everyone knew his most seen character was in the High Life commercials. Thanks anyways, that guy.

    Yeah you guys are right, I realized after I posted, but didn't have time to come back. I was right on carbs in the beer and alcohol but not the whole tier thing. I'm not a Miller guy, more of a Budweiser guy if drinking that style, but I'll drink whatever, haha. Anyway, sorry on messing up the great American lager :)

    Yeah, you're an idiot, and probably consume and validate far more genuinely offensive and counterproductive racial imagery in your media and music choices.

    As I'm basically the same physically and demographically, I'd love for that to to be true; but he could just as easily have pulled a Patrice O'Neal and stroked out due to undiagnosed diabetes or something, or had a heart attack like Mama Cass. Above 300 pounds, people (and probably publicists) aren't that forthright about the details; it could have been 320 or 380.

    Statstically, 44 years old is the on ramp for non-accidental deaths; getting more anxious every year.

    I have not seen a Miller beer in my life and I am 45. So I looked it up. There was a short lived plain Miller from 96-98. Otherwise there is no such thing as a Miller beer.
