No Talent? No Problem. Coors Light Wants to Give You the Artist Treatment at OSHEAGA
In the spirit of music festival season,Coors Lightjust launched a record label that's unlike any other yet it might still catapult a lucky music enthusiast to side-stage stardom at OSHEAGA Music and Arts Festival this August. The Rockies-born brewer has found a loophole that feels like a stunt, but it's an entirely on-brand move for a beer whose tagline is literally 'The Chill Choice.' Dubbed Coors Light Records, the 'completely fake, totally made-up record label' exists for one purpose only: to 'sign' a single fan as its equally fictional artist for a chance to win an experience fit for a rockstar at one of Canada's biggest music festivals. As they put it: talent is optional, enthusiasm is mandatory. In Canada, Coors Light isn't typically allowed to feature famous musicians in their ads so the brand flips the script and invites fans to become the talent themselves. It's a bold extension of the brand's new 'Chill on Shuffle' platform, which aims to shake up traditional music experiences. The perks? Think less queueing with the masses and more living like a chart-topper. Signing the faux contract unlocks daily side-stage access, a backstage tour, an exclusive meet-and-greet with Shaboozey— Beyond the standard OSHEAGA Defender Platinum ticket perks, Coors Light is throwing in premium extras: think first-class flights, hotel stays, a pro photoshoot, entry to the official OSHEAGA after party, and your own Coors Light–stocked rider. Even better? The winner gets to bring a friend—your new 'manager,' naturally. Behind the stunt is a very real history. Coors Light has sponsored OSHEAGA since 2007. And rather than work with a famous artist, Coors went into what-if mode: What if the artist was one of our fans? In doing so, they've turned a brand challenge into an opportunity to make someone's festival dreams come true—no songs out, no album to stream, no massive follower count required. If you've ever dreamed of festival glory—even if your karaoke game is mid at best—head July 10 and 23 for your chance at fifteen minutes (and an entire weekend) of Coors Light Stardom. No demo tape, no pressure—just a willingness to lean into the fun and let Coors Light handle the rest. Must be legal drinking age. (One) artist experience at OSHEAGA to be won. Contest ends July 23rd at 5pm EST. more details. DISCLAIMER:We discourage irresponsible and/or underage drinking. Drink responsibly and legally.

Applebee's unveils all-new summer food lineup full of fan favorites featuring a 2 for $25 deal
Applebee's is celebrating the summer season with all-new items and a 2 for $25 deal. The restaurant chain launched its new lineup Monday at participating US locations, which features new food and drinks and the return of a fan favorite lemonade. The meals joining its 2 for $25 offer are Chicken Parmesan Fettuccine and BIG Bangin' Burger. The fettuccine dish is a classic meal for Applebee's, while the burger features two cheese slices and a dose of its new sweet and spicy sauce made with jalapenos and bacon. Along with the chain's new foods comes Applebee's latest Summertime Sip creations: Perfect Watermelon Margarita and Watermelon Lime Rush. Other drinks that have made their way to the summer lineup are the Backyard Blackberry Lemonade and Coors Light Brewtus. Applebee's is also offering a new Strawberry Lemon Sunshine beverage, created in collaboration with Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation to support childhood cancer. Restaurant guests interested in trying these new offerings for themselves can do so now, but only for a limited time. The newest lineup comes just weeks after Applebee's extended its All You Can Eat (AYCE) deal. The drinks featured in this year's summer lineup is the Perfect Watermelon Margarita, Backyard Blackberry Lemonade, Coors Light Brewtus, and Watermelon Lime Rush Applebee's has also recently made headlines after abruptly closing a restaurant in St Petersburg, Florida. The chain left customers and employees stunned after reportedly closing the location with just seven hours' notice. All that was left on the abandoned building was a sign thanking locals for their 'many years of business' and encouraging them to visit another Applebee's location. It comes as the chain has been struggling with a dip in sales, suffering a 2.2 percent sales decline during this year's first quarter. The chain has been looking for ways to bounce back from its hardships, from an increase in deals to improving customer rewards. Applebee's parent company Dine Brands Global also consolidated a number of locations to help save costs and closed about 300 restaurants between 2016 and 2023. The chain shuttered up to 35 restaurants in 2024, and is set to close between 20 and 25 this year. Applebee's suffered a 2.2 percent sales decline during this year's first quarter Besides at Applebee's, summer deals have been blowing up at a string of fast food restaurants. Sonic started up a half-price milkshake deal and brought back its fan favorite Watermelon and Lemonberry Slush drinks. Burger King and Wendy's have made limited-time offerings, including BOGOs. Once the season started heating up, Jimmy Johns entered the ring with its new Lemon Sunshine Cookie and a limited-time sandwich lineup. Other restaurant chains that are competing with merchandise instead of food include Olive Garden with its pasta-inspired pool floats, and Panera Bread's S'Mac and Cheese lip balm to celebrate National Mac & Cheese Day.

As part of the brand's Chill on Shuffle music platform, one lucky winner will receive exclusive access at OSHEAGA including a backstage tour, an exclusive artist meet & greet with Shaboozey, and all the perks of a Defender Platinum ticket. TORONTO, July 10, 2025 /CNW/ - Today, Coors Light announces the launch of Coors Light Records, a new, completely fake, totally made-up record label created specifically to give one lucky Coors Light fan the rockstar treatment at one of Canada's biggest music festivals, OSHEAGA Music & Arts Festival. As a sponsor of OSHEAGA since 2007, Coors Light really wanted to partner with a headlining artist of the festival to launch their Chill on Shuffle music platform this year. The problem is, beer brands typically aren't allowed to partner with artists or celebrities in Canada. But you know who we can "sign"? You. Yeah. You. So the brand has taken matters into their own hands, to turn one of their fans into the hottest new "artist" to grace Parc Jean-Drapeau and get the rockstar treatment for a weekend. "Signing" an "artist contract" with Coors Light Records unlocks an OSHEAGA experience fit for a headliner, reserved only for our first-ever "artist". The best part? Since getting "signed" is just as fake as the record label itself, there's no talent required. So whether you're the queen of karaoke or still searching for the right note, anyone has an equal chance of getting signed with Coors Light Records. That could quite possibly make Coors Light Records the chillest record label ever. We'll check with our lawyers. Fans who get signed get some serious rockstar status perks, including: Exclusive access at OSHEAGA including daily side stage access, a backstage tour and seriously chill perks with a Defender Platinum ticket An exclusive meet-and-greet with Shaboozey OSHEAGA afterparty access Celebrity-level treatment like first class travel and accommodations A photoshoot on-site with professional hair and makeup A visit to OSHEAGA Artist World, the backstage hangout for headliners and performers A personal rider kit with tons of Coors Light swag Oh, and did we mention you can bring a friend? We suggest you start referring to them as your manager now. "This year, we're excited to introduce our new, multi-year music platform Chill on Shuffle, which is all about shuffling up the way we experience live music," says Leslie Malcolm, Vice President of Marketing of Molson Coors Beverage Company. "And what better way to shuffle things up than by unlocking a festival experience that's typically reserved for artists by turning a regular Coors Light fan into an "artist" themselves?" We're really not kidding about these perks. Here's what Nick Farkas, Senior Vice President, Bookings, OSHEAGA has to say. "OSHEAGA and Coors Light have been proud partners since 2007. This year, thanks to Coors Light Records, one lucky winner will be able to experience OSHEAGA similar to how a real artist would." Ready for your fifteen minutes of fame? Just head to between July 10th to the 23rd to enter for a chance to become the first-ever "artist" signed to Coors Light Records and experience OSHEAGA like the (off-key) rockstar that you are.

Homeowner's Solution to Neighbor's Dog Using Their Lawn as Toilet Applauded
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. What started as a polite request turned into a neighborhood "smear campaign" that left one pet owner rethinking his habits—and his landscaping. A Reddit user who goes by the name VryCuteAjaBharDuChut shared how their neighbor's dog, a large golden retriever named Duke, repeatedly defecated in the center of their front lawn. Causing a Stink After asking the dog's owner, Rick, to address the issue, the original poster (OP) was met with indifference. "It's all nature, bro. You don't own the Earth," Rick apparently replied, wearing a tank top that read "Weekend Warrior" and holding a Coors Light at 10 a.m., according to the post. Unwilling to let it continue, the homeowner escalated matters creatively. They collected two weeks' worth of Duke's waste in a bucket and redecorated the perimeter of Rick's backyard with it, especially around his fire pit. "Smells like nature, bro," the OP said when Rick noticed the stench. Stock image: Person picking up dog waste in a grass field, while a dog looks on. Stock image: Person picking up dog waste in a grass field, while a dog looks on. iStock / Getty Images Plus The campaign didn't stop there. The homeowner began posting "Lost Dog Poop" updates in the local Facebook group and planted tiny handmade signs with glitter and googly eyes that read, "Dear Duke the Pooper/This is not your golden throne/My grass feels betrayed." Rick confronted the OP, accusing them of trying to embarrass him. "Buddy, I don't need to try," the homeowner replied. As more neighbors chimed in with similar complaints, Rick eventually built a fenced dog run and began walking Duke on a leash. Dog waste disputes are more than just a neighborhood nuisance. According to DoodyCalls, "dealing with a neighbor's dog that poops in your yard can be unpleasant and quite irritating," and they suggest direct communication as the first step. The service also recommends motion-activated sprinklers and natural repellents to deter unwanted visits, though the homeowner in the Reddit post noted that Rick laughed at the sprinkler, claiming "Duke's built different." Countermeasures Another guide from Reolink outlines legal and community-based methods to handle such issues, including installing cameras for evidence, placing warning signs and contacting local animal control. While the Reddit poster's approach might not be in any handbook, the result aligned with what Reolink advocates: evidence-backed neighbor accountability. Responses to the Reddit thread included similar stories and support. As one user wrote, "I had a neighbor that did this. "After repeatedly asking them politely to keep their dog out of my yard I started picking up the poop, putting it in a bag and leaving it in their driveway... I finally started throwing it from my shovel all over their front yard." Another supporter added, "I've always hated folks leaving their dog poop without cleaning 'em. Now that I'm a dog owner, I hate it even more." The Smell of Victory The OP now makes poop-themed haiku signs as a hobby: "Victory smells like fresh-cut grass and not dog crap," they wrote. "I have some dehydrated dog poop remnants from Duke's mischief," VryCuteAjaBharDuChut told Newsweek in reply to an invitation to comment via Reddit. "As [the] story went viral, those should go up in value. I'd sell those samples to anyone who wanna acquire it for $1,000." Newsweek's "What Should I Do?" offers expert advice to readers.

'I was sick of neighbour letting dog poo in my garden – so I got brutal revenge'
A man has shared his 'genius' way to get revenge on his neighbour who allowed his dog to defecate in his garden every day - and the entire neighbourhood turned on him A man has been praised for his 'messy' retaliation against a neighbour who allowed his dog to defecate in the middle of his garden. He shared his experience of moving into a "relaxed little neighbourhood" where everything was perfect, except for his next-door neighbour, Rick, who seemed to have no regard for societal norms. In a Reddit post, he described Rick as: "The kind of guy who owns two grills but no shirt, drinks Coors Light in the driveway at 10am, and thinks property lines are just a 'suggestion'. He said: "Rick had a large golden retriever named Duke, who was friendly but had a peculiar habit of leaving his droppings right in the centre of his lawn every single day." Initially assuming it was an oversight, he approached Rick about the issue only to be met with an indifferent response. He recounted: "I walked over, super polite, and asked if he could maybe keep Duke on a leash or at least scoop the poop when it happened. However, Rick rudely retorted: "It's all natural bro, you don't own the Earth". To stop this from recurring, he mended his fence, set up motion-activated sprinklers and even tried using citrus deterrents. However, none of these measures worked. So the resident decided to ramp things up a notch. He said: "I started collecting Duke's turds in a Home Depot bucket. Lined it with a trash bag, used a scoop, added a little water for... aesthetic reasons. After about two weeks, I had something that looked like a cursed soup. "One Saturday morning, while Rick was out, I took that bucket and painted the border of his yard. "Sprinkled it like fairy dust right along his deck and around his precious fire pit area. He came out later that day, sniffed the air, and literally went, 'What the hell is that smell?' "I was sitting on my porch drinking coffee like, 'Smells like nature, bro.' But wait, it gets better. We have a neighbourhood Facebook group. "I started posting 'Lost Dog Poop' updates every time Duke hit my yard. Then I started putting up tiny little 'Do Not Poop Here' signs made out of popsicle sticks and toothpicks, complete with glitter and googly eyes, all over the lawn. I made them in weird passive-aggressive haiku. " This cheeky revenge didn't sit well with his neighbour, as the resident added: "Rick was not amused. He actually stormed over one day and yelled, 'Are you trying to make me look bad?!' I just blinked and said, 'Buddy, I don't need to try'. " Following this confrontation, the entire neighbourhood turned against Rick. And judging by the comments on Reddit, people thought the petty revenge was well deserved too. One commenter praised: "Oh, you are so good!" Meanwhile, another chimed in with: "Had this problem as well. Kudos for the poo soup you left for him and getting your neighbours on board".
