Crystal Pepsi Party
Once in a digital blue moon, eBay will do something that makes this whole Internet thing make sense.
Case in point: a recent listing for an unopened can of Crystal Pepsi (you remember, the 7-Up-lookin’ wunder beverage of the ‘90s). Once shipping costs are factored in, one can of this champagne-of-Pepsi-products costs $36.
You won't just want to guzzle this at home like any old can of soda; Crystal Pepsi deserves better than that. You're going to need to throw a full-on Crystal Pepsi party.
Here’s how it goes down:
1. Invite your friends, especially the ironic ones who will ’get’ what you're doing and chuckle about it later while they’re on Pitchfork.
2. Keep the CP (that’s Crystal Pepsi to insiders) chilled in a wine bucket throughout the party to add drama.
3. Open at climax of party, and give partygoers a taste of the 15+ year old beverage, which will taste "delicious" and "definitely under a decade old."
Thank you, eBay. You truly are an electronic bay of mystery.
