ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) - The Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race has lost another major sponsor. Fiat Chrysler Automobiles confirmed Monday that the Anchorage Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram dealership in Anchorage will no longer sponsor the race. The independently owned and operated dealership has been a core race supporter for 30 years, and annually presents the winner with a new pickup at the finish line in Nome.

I don't know, probably not too well, but how does Anchorage Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram dealership pulling out help them?
Got no money,
Got no cares,
Got lots of separation and no CV
Got the sun in the morning and the moon at night
Thought I’d see where it goes.
We’re all friggin broke now thanks to the hand wringers, bed wetters and chicoms.
How you likin’ all that cheap chinee chit now man?
How do you know this to be true? The reason I ask is there is no mention of PETA in the article. I wanted to see what PETA had done to make them back out.
I believe the races were started without major prizes. How about a year of food for the human winner...and a year worth of meaty dog food for the dogs? That would contort the PETASSES up a bit..no?
It was all over their webpage
Code for "pressure from Chrysler HQ to drop sponsorship"?
You mean PETA’s? What made you look there? 8>)
