From what I am hearing PSU athletics is switching from Pepsi "The Choice of a New Putrid Conference" to Coke. This IMHO would be another step in bringing back the "Golden Age" of Penn State Football. Our record in a Coca-Cola drinking Beaver Stadium is much, much better than our record in a Pepsi-drinking Beav. Also, from a sentimental point of view I spent many Saturday afternoons as a child and young adult watching the student section crumble-up and throw the Coke cups at each other while JVP's well-oiled machine would be rolling on the field. Great times! Now, all that's left are the end-zone diamonds and we are all set for glory once again! We are...

I can’t believe I’m about to say this but…I prefer caffeine-free Coke Zero to regular Coke. I mean, what’s that about?

Gave up soda about 10 years ago when I was experimenting with what was causing my GERD. Low and behold…… SUGAR.

HOWEVER

When I did drink soda, I was a coke man. Occasionally a cherry coke to change it up a bit.

Same. Started with diet and then on to sparkling water, which is 95% of what I drink now. I figure if I have a soda I’ll have a regular soda - love Maine Root Beer and Blueberry Soda. A Coke is nice at the movies when wine isn’t available :).

I would be very happy if they put some stands up that sold Creamery Ice Cream in the Stadium. But I have to say I'm really not the fan for doing stadium things. I go, get a bottle of water and maybe a burger or dog and thats it. 🤣

Coke trucks were there last week only to support a Coca Cola pitch to the university committee responsible for acting on the beverage sponsorship RFP responses…

I might have heard that Pepsi will stop all Dorito deliveries to Centre County if Coke is picked.

Boys apparently cola's can make a man out of a mouse drink up !
In conclusion, drinking Coca-Cola and Pepsi-Cola could promote testis development, enhance testosterone secretion, increase serum EGF concentrations, also accelerated expressions of AR protein in the mice testes.

Who ever heard of a Pepsi and Coke? I remember the vendors selling Coke in the stadium: "Mixer Get you mixer here!"
