Hopeful fans waited at bars across Cleveland for the moment the 'Victory Fridges' would unlock and release the coveted free beer to celebrate the end of the team's losing streak.
Fans and the team ended their losing streak, but fans didn't get their beer.

When everyone realized the game would end in a tie, many started asking what that would mean for the fridges.
We need an official ruling on the #BudLightVictoryFridgein case of a tie? @ThomaHawkShow

Unfortunately, there is no reward for effort and Bud Light cleared things up.
Cleveland. You fought hard. Unfortunately, the #BrownsVictoryFridge only opens with a W. But after that game, we doubt they'll stay locked for long.

At least we didn't lose.
Victory Fridges should unlock... a tie for Cleveland is basically a win. #Browns
