New Pepsi Brand: Exclusive Pepsi

From an article at MotherJones.com. (Scroll down to the 2nd article on the page).

Quote:
..Spectators at the Pepsi-sponsored Cricket World Cup in South Africa have been thrown out -- and could even be tossed in jail -- for drinking Coke...
(Emphasis by me).

If you give big business a long enough leash they will do the weirdest things. Gives the term ‘free market’ a whole new meaning.

Wow, that is stupid. I suppose they'll try it here next, wouldn't suprise me if they get away with it either.

I'd just put a 'Pepsi' label over my bottle of 'Coke'.

ok, this has gotta be a joke of some kind. I mean they say you more serious offenders can be put in jail...how can you offend more seriously when drinking soda???
