In North Carolina if I order a Coke at a drive through they may
come back and tell me they only carry Pepsi and want to know
if that's acceptable.

Friend: "Dr. Pepper"
Person: "OK, I'll be back in ten minutes."

That sounds right, though we weren't Pepsi drinkers when I was living in Knoxfull, so the coke my kids wife would have asked for would have been Dr. Pepper and Sprite.

What an imprecise map compared to a county by county map. I went to find that county by county map on purpose to make up for finding any old water shortage map earlier. That's the real deal, I guarantee it.

Its funny how you can see the hinterland of St. Louis sketched out so clearly by what they call soft drinks. But it explains how Mizzou was still on the table for the SEC to pick up when they added TX A&M, there just weren't enough pop drinkers in a soda drinker dominated conference to vote them in.

No Texan would say "Dr. Pepper" as there's no period after the Dr so it's just Dr Pepper.

Coke is fading as a term. The folks in Atlanta have folks who go to restaurant and order coke and if they are given options other than Coke TM products they get a nasty cease and desist letter.

You should have seen the look I got when I ordered a club soda and cranberry in Texas.

I bet they didnt have it? Lol

To us, "Club Soda" is a term for beer that parents use around their kids.

Also utilized in the same situations: "Daddy Sodas", and "Blue Coke".

Band-Aid is also a brand of adhesive bandage. Doesn't make a bit of difference round here.

Pepsi is so much better than coke . Lol

Doesn't matter, prefer Tequila over beer. Rarely drink soft drinks. If it's cheap tequila and need to mix it, it's with orange juice.

Never drank a $200 bottle of tequila but had a number of good $30 and $40 dollar bottles. on the low end like Cazadores Rep and on a bit higher Chinco Rep.

Two Fingers is cheaper than that and performs admirably.

For a cheap tequila that i'm going to pass out to Ohio fans have Camarena. Actual meet a few good fans that would consider giving some of my better tequila.

App State has a Pepsi contract still I believe.
Agree with you, but my dad and I disagree about Coke and Pepsi every Thanksgiving.

Last I heard Eastern Michigan's Pepsi contract has kept them FBS for years.
Every other year Pepsi buys enough football tickets to get them by the NCAA 15,000 requirement.

UArk had more negative feedback signing with Pepsi than any of the crazy crap that has happened there and they have had some really crazy crap.

It is a hard decision for stadiums. I wasn't happy with our decision.

We are deep in Coke country and there is a rumor circulating that we may be going Pepsi this year due to them showing us the $$$ that apparently Coke hasn't. I only drink diet sodas of which I like Pepsi's better so it doesn't matter to me, gimme that caish!
