Their sign invites their current and potential first time customers in, (who are wearing) some type of reference, to either the local college or local/regional NFL team.
They get to purchase an Xtra large cup of gourmet coffee or cocoa, which would normally retail for at least $4.79 -$5.29 per cup. But during college football or NFL season, (including) the entire playoffs and the Super Bowl. It’s just $1.29 per cup. Say what?
