Ever since Cristiano Ronaldo removed two bottles of Coca-Cola during a Euro Cup press conference, and chose water instead other people have been making fun out of the situation.
From sports personalities to common people, here are a few twisted versions of the same Coke story.

After his act, people are pointing out that he probably did it because of his religious beliefs.
2. India’s fielding coach R Sridhar chipped in a hilarious one-liner while addressing a press conference in Southampton.
Should I move the Coke bottle before we start? Will the share prices be affected if I do it?
