All my Gameday stuff is Yeti, (100 qt Yeti cooler for the beer) , (30 Yeti soft side for food items ) , (30 oz ramblers for the beer drinking ) . Question is, with them not supporting gun rights , should I switch brands ? Is there anything comparable ? It’s a tough decision , because the gear is pretty good , what say you ?

NRA member here too...

I'd put them in storage for 6 months until they come to their senses...

and yes, that was an idiot move...

The NRA suggested putting one of their stickers on your yeti to show support rather than blowing up your expensive cooler. That’s probably the route I’m going to take.

I say that Yeti is only good for a sticker that lets everyone know you paid 500 bucks for a cooler.

Can I ask what blowing it up or throwing away does to the company?? They already have your money. Only person you are hurting is when you go buy it for a second time... i get boycotting but distroying makes no sense to me. If you feel like getting rid of it, I’ll take it.... lol

I have a list .......... and they are on it. Not going to whine to the liberal media, just my thing. Makes me smile inside when I purchase another brand or eat another place. Dad use to call that principles

Buy an RTIC and save a ton of money

Yeti **** is way overrated. I have access to basically "free" Yeti stuff and I'd hate to think I paid that kinda price for their stuff especially in light of their support for the NRA. Buy RTIC or Grizzly and save some money. Yeti is to coolers as Under Armour is to hunting apparel.....paying for the name.

Don't patronize unpatriotic anti Second Amendment companies. My Yeti and Dicks, etc all go the way of Montgomery Ward and Hecks....as in cease to exist.

No, they’re lame too. The 2nd amendment will never be repealed and it takes a mass shooting 10 days to run through the news cycle. You guys are being snowflakes about Yeti, just like the liberals boycotting Chic Fila.

Yeti and ozark tumblers are both low grade stainless steel, people who buy Yeti pay 39.99 instead of 10.99 because they want to look cool.

I would never pay that much for a cooler ...never in a million years ...ice is just not that expensive & I get free ice every day ....but I also don't have to over compensate for anything ...im a grower not a shower ...
I make fun of the welders who have them , but then again I make fun of alot of people who like to advertise what they have or what they make

I was the same way, but we went on an elk hunt last winter and I needed something reliable to bring meat back in and the igloo marine cooler just wasn't going to cut it. Have to say being able to throw som dry ice in the Yeti and not have to worry about it for a week was pretty nice.

Yes......I'm no NRA guy.....but Yeti is totally overpriced. Walmart sells a 30 oz. Yeti Tumbler for $29.99 and a 30 oz. Ozark Trail Tumbler for $8.74. There are many online videos of the two being tested.

I'd use Yeti until a better, cheaper, brand came along. They're allowed their opinion on the subject of guns.
