Happy Birthday Coca-Cola, Happy Birthday to you!

Many American homes will be celebrating Mother’s Day Sunday, but the Atlanta-based soft drink maker will mark the day by kicking off a year-long promotional calendar of events to mark the milestone.

Remaining relevant to the public for a century and a quarter is no easy task for any brand. Kudos to Coke for staying "classic" all these years. Here's hoping they've got at least another 125 years left in them!
