Message: [QUOTE="Stern, post: 3530749, member: 527"] High Schools did it for 2 reasons... 1) They didn't have to pay for it. Pepsi and Coke got into high schools some 10-15 years ago after decades of schools keeping their machines out and not promoting sugar water. And Pepsi and Coke would pay high schools and the district big $$$ to put their soda machines in and in and give these school districts and high schools big money to do so and originally that foot the bill for the fancy field turf and other upgrades these schools needed badly. 2) Maintenance. It is cheaper to maintain field turf than it is real grass. [/QUOTE]
