My father-in-law passed away on sept 7th,a big Clemson man and a good guy.We were cleaning out his shed this weekend and I found some old game day programs and a six pack of bottle Pepsi.The six pack was from 1974 and celebrated the teams undefeated season.The bottles unopened look brand new and was even in a card board carton.Just thought it was pretty cool and wondered if any of y'all remember those drink bottles.

Yes I remember the bottles. I have six of them in mint condition. Hold on to them they are valuable. They were bottled to celebrate Clemson undefeated home season.

They're semi-valuable

I looked this up a few years ago (and just did another search to confirm) and those bottles sell in the $5-$15 range per bottle. Certainly more than their original cost, but they're not something that will make you rich.

Don't let anyone tell you not to drink one!

As long as they have a good seal they should taste like new. Also, the bottles actually gain value when they are empty

I've got an opened/empty one of these bottles at home. It's kind of neat, though it's always seemed a bit silly to me to celebrate an "undefeated home season"--maybe back then it was more of an accomplishment. Someone below said bottles are worth more empty than full, but I can't find any documentation to that effect.
