Keystone Centre going to Pepsi
2/9/2017 at 8:43 PM

Going by the new signage out on the 18th st entrance, Pepsi will now be sold at the Keystone Centre. At the Wheat Kings games on Wednesday, I noticed Pepsi coolers at the Pizza Hut kiosk and the Forbidden Flavours had one too.

I wish they would switch beer suppliers instead. Molson sucks.

I would LOVE to see them go with Manitoba made beers. WHL teams such as Kelowna and ESPECIALLY Seattle/Portland (some of best beer cities on the continent) all supply local and regional beer. They supply a couple big brand beer too but push local first.

Unfortunately here.. Molson or Labatt would pay a fortune for exclusivity

they now server Pepsi @ ACC instead of Coca Cola. Kinda dumb when there Coca Cola plant is right across the street from the college. All for a $$$ grab I guess.

Coca Cola stopped bottling in Manitoba in December 2015 so it's now being bottled out of Calgary and Southern Ontario

why
2/10/2017 at 9:58 AM

Do they have to do this! I don't see why they can't have both coke and Pepsi. It seems like Pepsi is taking over Brandon in restaurants and I'm getting sick of drinking it. I prefer coke. I wish they could just have both so you could have a choice. Ugh. Worst decision ever

I wish my biggest concern in life was not being able to get Coke at a hockey game. Can't blame the keystone...Pepsi must have offered them a pretty good deal, better than what they were getting from coke.

Pepsi or Coke
2/10/2017 at 5:23 PM

I will drink both so it's no issue in that respect. I just thought it was interesting since the Keystone Centre has been with Coke for a long time, likely since it opened.

I would suspect the contract came up and Pepsi is giving a better deal. The contracts by both Coke and Pepsi are for exclusivity in the facility.

But that used to be a bottling plant, I remember taking a school tour through it 35 years ago when it was all still glass bottles

COKE
2/10/2017 at 10:53 PM

I've been drinking only Diet Coke for more then 20 years and nothing but... I even call ahead when new restaurants open to see what they serve. Coke places are the ones that get our repeat business. When the lady wants a place like Applebees or Montanas it's a rare treat LOL. I take my cans of Diet Coke everywhere with me. Driving around, to the Movies, Shopping wherever I am
