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...

Coke is the superior soft drink.

I canā€™t believe Iā€™m about to say this butā€¦I prefer caffeine-free Coke Zero to regular Coke. I mean, whatā€™s that about?

Gave up soda about 10 years ago when I was experimenting with what was causing my GERD. Low and beholdā€¦ā€¦ SUGAR.

HOWEVER

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

I gave up soft drinks in 1991 for lent.
I havenā€™t had one since

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 Iā€™ll have a regular soda - love Maine Root Beer and Blueberry Soda. A Coke is nice at the movies when wine isnā€™t available :).

Please expound on ā€œFrom what I hearā€ ā€¦

I will be happy to tell you where the university is with this process ā€¦

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. šŸ¤£

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 responsesā€¦

PepsiCo presented on Wednesday ā€¦
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.

Umm, they have at least one stand, West side, ground level, I think slightly toward the south endzone.

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