Cherry Coke just had to be created to steal the glory from the Cheerwine Co. . . BTW, I was working at a radio station in Cabarrus County (home of Cheerwine) when Mello Yello was introduced. I also remember carting up their initial commercials (as well as other CoCo products) and nowhere can I think of Mr. Pibb being advertised as the 'world's fastest soft drink.' Next time, instead of beer, take shots of Mr. Pibb once a minute until you get sick!!! dya
