AUSTIN, Texas, Nov. 16, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Big Red, America's original and best-selling red soda, teams up with the NBA's Matt Bonner for a limited edition 2-liter bottle to commemorate his 10 year professional basketball career in San Antonio. Bonner is 1 of only 6 players to join the team's exclusive 10 year club. The 3-point specialist and dependable role player is proud to be a part of the team's success over the years. Starting in mid-November, consumers in central and south Texas can purchase the limited run bottles until supplies last.
"We are excited to work with San Antonio fan favorite Matt Bonner for a second year," says Big Red's SVP of Marketing Thomas Oh. "To celebrate his 10 year anniversary, we thought it only made sense to put the NBA's only red head on San Antonio's #1 red soda, Big Red."

"I am honored to have spent the last 10 years in San Antonio." says Matt Bonner. "I am excited about teaming up with Big Red, Texas' most iconic soda, for a second straight year. This partnership continues as my teammates and I kickoff the 2015-2016 season."
Ten year San Antonio veteran and two time NBA Champion, Matt Bonner, nick-named "Red Mamba," is a down-to-earth fan favorite. When he's not playing basketball, Matt Bonner spends his time with his family in New Hampshire and sipping on his favorite Big Red Soda.
Off the court, Matt is quirky, trustworthy and relatable. With his brother Luke, Matt co-founded the Rock On Foundation in 2013, which serves to increase community artistic and athletic opportunities. He also appeals to his fans by making short videos titled "Wrapping with the Red Mamba," in which he eats sandwiches with popular rappers. As an all-around fun, creative basketball player, Matt Bonner makes a great addition to the Big Red Soda team.
