Why was there never a Coka Cola Theme pinball - Canada Dry was covered.
Just think of the value in a Coka Cola pin with Coke collectors.

I think it's a great idea, but it's also like a Mac vs. PC thing.

I prefer Pepsi products and would love to see a Mountain Dew/Pepsi pin. If
they made one, they should make the other to cover the market.

Hmmm... Maybe that *IS* a great idear! :)

First off they would have to get the spelling on the pin correct. "Coca
Cola". "Coke" for short.

I would think that Coke stuff would be more collectible than Pepsi.
Personally, I'd prefer a pin with an RC and a Moon Pie but that's just
me......

Ewwww, yuck! No one really *likes* Pepsi do they? So thick with corn
syrup it slides down your throat like slime. I thought the only reason
they had a measureable market share is because they own Pizza Hut, KFC,
Taco Bell and who knows what else. Those places have no choice but to
sell Pepsi. I didn't know anyone bought Pepsi when Coke "The Real
Thing" was available!

My completely unbiased opinion ;-)

Those restaurant chains are now owned by Tricon. I don't know why they
still serve Pepsi. Some people do claim to really like it, though --
including some people that I respect and admire.

Both Coke and Pepsi are pretty nasty -- but I admit addiction to Coke.
I compulsively drink between 12 and 48 ounces of it each and every
day. I am not proud of it.

BURN THIS BASTARD!!!! We do not need Demons like this polluting our
valuable internet with ridiculous accusations about being a Pepsi drinking
peckerhead.
And don't even get me started on Mountain Dew!!!!!!! Why not urinate into a
bottle
and throw some NoDoze in there? Urine colored AND high in caffeine...might
even
taste better. Plus I can't stand THOSE Mountain Dew commercials (you know
exactly
what I'm talkin' about too...Some gentlemen driving recklessly in an 18
wheeler chugging
away...I mean what's that all about?)

We do not need a Coke pinball machine.
We do not need a Pepsi pinball machine.
We NEED a Grape Nehi pinball machine.
We NEED a Yoo-Hoo pinball machine...Period.

Harry who REALLY does prefer Pepsi products over Coke's.
AND WHAT THE HELL EVER HAPPENED TO PEPSI KONA? Was I the only
person who drank this fantastic product?

I love you Bill (not in a gay way though)

How about a "You've Got Milk" pinball machine then, or at the very least a
"Louis XIII" pinball machine. Nothing like a good brandy to warm your
spirits now that winter is coming. LTG :)

I think with all these old farts around we need a Viagra pinball machine. I
have a Viagra pen and it's my favorite instrument (writing, that is).

Take a joke old fellows, I really love you (and not in a gay way) ; )

Beer. It even sounds good. "Play Stern's latest offering - BEER". Just
rolls off the tongue.
Who wouldn't love that? I know I would (in my Harry Carey skit from
Saturday Night Live Will Farrell voice, but knowbody usually gets my SNL
references).
I'm sure it would be the return of pinball to bars as well.
Coke is good, but the real thing is "BEER"!

Hmm, what would "Beer" the pin say?

"Shoot for the Micro Brew" "You burnt the hops. Let's make some
Porter!" "I'll have a Porter!" "Where's my lager?" "This ale sucks"
"This rounds' on me" "I gotta hit the head" and of course tilting
would result in "YOU'RE FLAGGED!"

And the kids version could feature all the Kool Aid flavors!

It could also feature a toilet for those who've had too much beer.
"Ralph" mode maybe?

Ahh.. Yet another fine addition to the growing "Games with a toilet in
them" club (JY, SP and AP)

Heck, maybe Stern's next game will have a plumbing theme! ;)

Amazing they managed to keep one out of the Water Works, isn't it?

A Budweiser pin that dispenses 16 frosty ounces instead of credit when you
hit specials? There's an idea...

Pepsi spun off Pizza Hut, KFC, Taco Bell as Tricon Global a few years back
(ticker symbol is YUM)....

What about Taito's Ice Cold Beer... (ok, so it's not really a pin...)--
