The writers here at BitRebels often gain inspiration from one another and write follow ups to each others articles. This is one such article. My Twitter friend and fellow BitRebels writer, @mistygirlph, recently wrote an amazing article entitled “Awesome Pepsi Soccer Commercials” http://retwt.me/UW2W.

This was a great article with some very funny commercials; however, it’s time for a follow up. I live in Atlanta, Georgia. About ten minutes away from where I live is the Coca-Cola World Headquarters.

It is a beautiful 29 story tall building with the bright red Coke logo so colossal and majestic you can see it for miles. Sometimes when I’m strolling midtown with my pups, I see tourists lined up outside for the daily tours.

Here in Atlanta, unless you are at Pizza Hut or Taco Bell, you can only order Coke (I’m sure there are exceptions to this, but none that I can think of). Everyone here loves Coke. Even back in the days when there was a Coke/Pepsi rivalry, there was never any contest in Atlanta. I wouldn’t, under any circumstances, ever voluntarily buy a Pepsi. No offense to Pepsi, that is just how it is when you live in Atlanta.

So when my wonderful friend @mistygirlph wrote that Pepsi article, I knew right then that I had to follow up with a Coke article. It’s only right. Move over Pepsi, Coke is on BitRebels now!

I love Coca-Cola commercials almost as much as I love drinking Coke, so I found some of the best of the best to feature below. I would like to credit http://coca-cola-art.com for all the vintage Coca-Cola artwork featured below.

Coke is simply the best! Enjoy!

This is the original groundbreaking video/jingle from the now very famous 1971Coca-Cola commercial:

We say “Jinx, buy me a coke” in my house almost every day. This commercial is from Superbowl 2008:

My favorite one is the 3rd one, the beautiful coca-cola commercial. I’ve never actually enjoyed Pepsi. I thought it was too sweet for me. I’m a Diet Coke kind of guy. :) Enjoyed the article as always Diana.

I am heartbroken to learn that we are on opposite sides of the Coke/Pepsi fence. But it will teach me forgiveness.:)

Love these spots. A few months ago, I was joking on Twitter about those offers to “Get 19,000 followers right away”. Someone asked me what I would do with them, here’s what I said: http://bit.ly/3rTrMk At least YOU will understand what I mean.

Really. I am. I started this drink some time before I saw your article so don’t you take it personally, Diana.
