MarkB452 Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 I was getting my free soda for being a designated driver and I noticed that they were offering bottomless soda for $10 per game. Did anybody get this and if so, how does it work? Do you get a special cup or wristband or what? How big is the cup they actually refill? Given that the smallest sodas are $5 a piece, this could be a "bargain" on those hot days in Sept. (unless you realize that you can buy a 2 liter bottle at Giant for about $1.50, but good luck getting that into the stadium). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My brother and I saw two kids in line for what looked like refills, but they didn't suggestive sell them to us. Also, they only had sprite and diet coke in my area, haha.

FedEx Nosebleed Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 The guy in line ahead of me ordered this. The cup is one of the standard large, hard plastic commemorative cups. If you pay for the bottomless, they put a big white sticker on the side that said something like bottomless / free refills on it. It took them a couple minutes to find the stickers after he ordered it (maybe 5 minutes before kickoff), suggesting it wasn't that popular an option yesterday.

Chris528 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 It's a great deal especially if your with a significant other or child. You can share the same cup and drink as much as you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoSkins561 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Soda sobers you up? I think Dan is getting the better end of the deal on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enter Apotheosis Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Soda sobers you up? I think Dan is getting the better end of the deal on this one. Not drinking beer for three hours sobers you up. If you're still thirsty and you're going to want to drink even a little bit more than 1 full cup of soda then you're going to break even on this deal at the very least. Water is also $5 a pop at the stadium and that's for a pretty standard size bottle, so if you go that route you get even less bang for your buck than just ordering a regular (but still pretty darn large) soda. If you're going to the game with a kid or SO you could easily share a soda or use one cup to refill everyone and come out well ahead of the game. Better to have this option than not to have it, even if most of us won't find a reason to take full advantage of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DButz65 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 If they are really doing this, awesome! I rarely ever drink alcohol inside the stadium and just do soda or water when I get thirsty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkB452 Posted August 27, 2012 Author Share Posted August 27, 2012 If they are really doing this, awesome! I rarely ever drink alcohol inside the stadium and just do soda or water when I get thirsty >> I almost always sign up for the designated driver program and get a coupon for a small free soda. Sometimes they'll let you upgrade to the big plastic cup for $1, but usually not. Considering 1 beer is $9, this is not a bad alternative (the 2 guys in front of me at the Colts game each had 5 beers during the game and were dropping $20 a round..) I just wish the had Coke Zero rather than diet coke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BornToHail Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 The question is - can you bring the cup back and get refills? I guess if you can get it past security... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWFLSkins Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Who sits around and pounds multiple sodas in a 3 hour period? IDK, maybe a responsible person who is expected to drive home afterward with everyone else loaded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MWAI Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 As they sell your the "bottomless soda", did they forget to mention the "bottomless bathroom" pass for only $100. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bankable Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 [ATTACH]47184[/ATTACH] It's real. and a great deal compared to any other beverage sold at the stadium. as other people stated you can get drinks for multiple guests with $10. refill is quick if you use good timing. plus the cup is a good souvenir.

psu2008 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I saw it and got it on Saturday. Shocked/surprised/happy. Solid deal for a stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbcooper Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I got one on saturday. My GF doesn't drink alcohol, and I could only bear to buy a couple $9 beers. We shared the soda and went back for a few refills. As long as you get 3, then you save money. 2 you break even. The sticker on the cup designates the game, so its only good for that day. Not like you can bring it back a following sunday. If you don't mind sharing your drink with someone, two people could drink enough to save enough money for those $9 beers. FWIW...

Rocky52Mc Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Someone who needs to sober up during the game? are you going to have legitimate time to sit through real lines during the games and get sodas? It seems a deal like this coincides with not having a lot of money, assuming you don't have a lot of money you're sitting further away from the tunnel, which adds to the trouble of getting this soda. Lines are horrendous at actual games. I can barely sit through a bathroom break and am left with no time for a run at the concessions. I paid for tickets so you won't see me beating anyone to the concessions by skipping plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkinsFanInTennessee Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Wow, free refills on soda, what a deal.... After having lived here in Germany for 6 months, free refills on Cokes really is a good deal. Here in Europe, there are no free refills, you pay per bottle. They average 2-3 Euros per bottle (0.5L = 16oz), which is about $2.50-$3.75 when converted to Dollars. When visiting larger cities like Paris or Rome, those prices can be even higher. I have seen at restaurants upwards of 6.50-7.00 euros a bottle. Trust me, after living here for 6 months, I have a lot fewer things to complain about. And lets not talk about gas prices. I will GLADLY pay $3.50-$4.00 or more a gallon when I get home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redskindan07 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 They had this same deal at the Dolphins stadium in Miami. I got it during the Skins game last year. I would recommend it as it is a good deal!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
