Interesting deal then...usually those guys want exclusivity.
One of our largest, if not the largest, donor was head of Pepsi-Cola Bottling Co in Charlotte. Our basketball arena is named after her.

That's funny, my mom and grandmom are from Atlanta and I would get in more trouble drinking a Pepsi at 15 than drinking a beer.
ODU has been Pepsi since we added football, you got to go off campus to find a Coke.

UAB has Pepsi products (+ Dr. Pepper) at Bartow Arena
Both Coke and Pepsi products are available at Legion Field. Some concession stands offer one, some offer the other.

Dr. Pepper is a Pepsi product in Huntington, I think. It's Coke/Pepsi, depends on the distribution deal.

Yeah, that's the way I grew up as well. At a restaurant they would ask you what you wanted to drink. I would answer, "a Coke." They would immediately reply, "what kind of Coke?"
The same was/is true for Q-Tips, Xerox, Band-Aid, Kleenex, Scotch-Tape, Chapstick, Jell-O, and Clorox.

Dr. Pepper is a Pepsi product in Huntington, I think. It's Coke/Pepsi, depends on the distribution deal.
Dr. Pepper is a product of Dr. Pepper Snapple Group and licenses independently (mostly through Pepsi because Coke has Pibb Xtra) with commercial distributors because for some reason they don't do it themselves with RC, A&W, Dr. Pepper, 7UP, and Sun Drop.
I really prefer RC to Coke and Pepsi, but I can't remember the last time I saw it in a fountain anywhere.

the South is that way.
places that serve only pepsi must get worn out from saying "is pepsi ok"? because everyone orders a coke.
