PR ASSIGNMENT
BUDWEISER CLYDESDALES AND NFL STAR BRADY QUINN SHOW UP AT CEDAR POINT AMUSEMENT PARK/RESORT 
Sandusky, OH/ June 12/ Cedar Point Amusement Park/Resort 
In an outstanding week full of events, Cedar Point Amusement Park’s world-class roller-
coasters will be complemented by the famous Budweiser Clydesdale horses and by NFL 
star quarterback Brady Quinn. On June 12 at 2 p.m. the world-famed eight-horse team of 
Clydesdales will parade from the park’s midway to the Wicked Roller Coaster where they 
will be on display from 1:30 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. and from 2:30 p.m. until 3 p.m. The 
Clydesdales legendary story began when they were given as a present from August Busch 
Jr. to August Busch Sr. and Anheuser-Busch in 1933 to celebrate the end of 
Prohibition. Busch Jr. told his dad that he bought him a new car and when he took him 
outside he surprised him with a full team of horses. Now these magnificent horses are 
Budweiser’s brand mascots and make appearances all over the country in special events 
like the Super Bowl. The Clydesdales are known for their colossal size, measuring up 
to six feet at the neck and weighing up to 2,300 pounds. Their horseshoes alone are 20 
inches and weight five pounds. The Clydesdales will be pulling a completely restored 
vintage beer wagon and a Dalmatian sits next to the driver as part of the tradition of 
companionship to the horses.
On June 14, Cedar Point Park will have it’s very own special “Brady Quinn Day”. The 
Columbus native will hold a Q&A with fans at the Game Day Grill at noon and then will 
pose for pictures until 1:15 pm. Quinn started his remarkable football career by 
setting 36 school records for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. He also received the 
Maxwell Award to College Football’s Player of the Year in 2006. He was a first round 
draft for the Cleveland Browns in 2007, where he currently plays as a QB.
