40 Years Later – “Mean” Joe Greene and Coca Cola Kid Reunite [VIDEO]

It's been almost 40 years since Pittsburgh Steeler "Mean" Joe Greene traded his jersey for a Coke from a 9 year old, in one of the greatest Super Bowl commercials ever.

Well, according to People magazine, Joe and the all grown up Tommy Okon, just reunited for a TV show celebrating the best Super Bowl TV spots, set to air next week. The TV spot actually aired for the first time in October of 1979 and then re-aired during Super Bowl XIV in January of 1980.

And how many bottles of Coke did Joe go through during the shoot? Let's just say he was probably burping for a while afterwards.
