Default 7up commercial

Sorry, but I was a bit drunk/other last night and can't remember if I thought of this on my own or saw a commercial about it. But I think it was a commercial. Are they now marketing 7up and dnL? Look at dnL upsidedown. Anyone else hear about it or is this made up in my head.

I figured you were just drunk until I did a quick search and came up with this:

lol, imagine how confused I was this morning when I thought about it! I was like, was I dreaming, cause that's a majorly crazy idea! To market your product after DECADES of work to have people recognize 7up, they are totally changing their name. Maybe someday people will wonder how dnL got it's name and we'll remember when it was still called 7up LMAO.

DnL is not re-branded 7-Up. It's another product line that is green and has an after taste that is similar to Mountain Dew.

In fact, that's the targetted product that 7-Up is competing with.

I like the whole "flip it" theme for dnL. 7up: clear soda in green bottle, no caffeine. dnL: 7up upside down, green soda in clear bottle, lotsa caffeine, etc etc. Pretty clever. I'll have to try some when/if I ever stumble across it.
