Bought this at the World of Coca-Cola in Las Vegas...
My parents and I got it on a random trip to Vegas. I'd assume that it was the same trip that we saw the Blue Man Group on. The store is just on the main strip near all of the big hotels and casinos. You can only get this shirt from the particular World of Coke location in Vegas.
In general the shirt is of average quality. However, it is the perfect type of shirt for my collection. I already had an almost exact replica of this shirt so it is not like I needed another one. BUT, I realized that this could be another Hard Rock Cafe type collection. The nice part about making a second collection is that once I got this shirt I was done with it, two of two.
This shirt is exactly like the other World of Coca-Cola shirt: the design, the colors, the printing, even the text. They are copies of each other except one or two words. One word on the Atlanta shirt, two words on the Las Vegas one. All it says is "World of Coca-Cola Las Vegas" on a big globe. The place/store itself is a fun gallery of Coca-Cola memorabilia and a classic gift shop. You can also get food and drinks, real American.
This is such a tourist shirt. It lets you know that I like Coca-Cola, or at least what they stand for. I have it in my normal lineup because it says a lot about me: travel, Coke, graphic tees, corporate America, black shirts, and and uhh... whatever Vegas means. I can wear this almost anywhere but if I want to make a particularly Western statement I'll grab this one.
I used to have a fascination with Coke, an obsession more like. It tastes good, it's refreshing, it has that bubbly feeling and you can get it anywhere. From Nepal to Morocco "Coca-Cola" will get you the same delicious beverage. I'd have to say that the best Coke I've ever had was from Norway. I think it's something in the water.
