As the Caps season begins, Bud Light is giving away double-sided shirts with Caps logos on the front and also on the inside. That way, the world sees "Let's go Caps!" when you flip your shirt over your face to chug your beer.
Bud Light tweeted about the free shirts Monday.
"@Capitals fans, there’s nothing quite like pulling a championship jersey over your head and drinking a Bud Light through it. A close second, you can pull this shirt over your head and take a drink of Bud Light through it!" the tweet said.
