Coca-Cola is the soft drink brand Randy Johnson repeatedly presents as one of his favorite drinks. He says he has always loved Coca-Cola and remembers going to his grandparents' house as a child and pouring an ice-cold glass of Coke.
Childhood tours
He also remembers visiting Coca-Cola factories on school field trips. One transcript places that trip in Morristown, Tennessee, while another says Murfreesboro, Tennessee; both versions mention cheap Coke machines and Coke being handed out to students or employees.
Brand rivalry
Randy also tells brand-rivalry anecdotes: he says a Coca-Cola worker was suspended after drinking Pepsi, and he describes a Coke promotion in which a can contained a dollar bill. His tone is positive toward Coke and mostly amused by the stories around it.
