They've made millions from the drink. But a lot of Thais will see Aed Carabao on the pitch today as a sign of Thai influence. And not think to question his supposed original ideals or corporate sell out. Which was much earlier than people realize

The drink was an investment supposedly to keep providing a living for families and staff from their roadies, studio etc. Though Aed, on the pitch today, once decried energy drinks as a way to keep the working poor productive.

From a massive Thai band that made their name from fighting for democracy and the downtrodden. The lead singer was on the pitch shaking hands.
Always in it for the money. But did some good along the way.
