Unlikely Beverage Duo

Reptiles and Felines

What does the game of golf, sugar water, and $100 million have in common? They all meet in some strange place where a professional golfer gets offered yet another insane amount of cash to take a sip of alligator-inspired sports drink, smile, and mumble "cha-ching" under his breath. Tiger Woods now has his own line of Gatorade - cherry, citrus, and grape (he picked those flavors out all by himself). Couldn't they just have put his face on the lid of regular Gatorade?
