SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment announced today a 10-year agreement with The Coca-Cola Company that makes Coca-Cola® the “Official Refreshment Beverage” of our parks beginning January 1, 2012.

Well, this is certainly a very interesting news. The SeaWorld parks in Central Florida have surely already started to remove all the Pepsi logos and beverages from their restaurants and snack locations. We will soon go to SeaWorld Orlando to see the actual changes that will take place in the park. Indeed, if Coca-Cola will be willing to spend some money in the parks, we may also begin to see some new attractions, sponsored by the beverage company, coming soon. Hopefully. Stay tuned, as we always keep you up-to-date.
