Who drank all the Orange?

I’ll have an orange soda please. Yes Orange soda is my favorite beverage.
You can have your Sports drinks, fad drinks, and Lattes. I got to have my Orange soda.
Why, because it has special hockey powers that I have discovered. It’s the only thing that can counteract bad luck from skaters going onto the ice before the zamboni doors are closed. Do I question the logic of this - No, not me. I make sure I have my Orange Synergy cap, my back up NY Mets cap, and my assorted Syracuse Orange attire at the ready before each game. I then double check to see if I have spare Orange laces and stick tape on hand. Tonight I discovered that all the orange soda was gone from the refrigerator.
“Who drank all the Orange?” My youngest quickly glanced over at my oldest boy. Mmmmmmmm. I looked out the window into the cold dark night. Do I really want to go out this late and drive five miles to find some orange soda? Well, I do have some orange flavored Alka-Seltzer. Maybe I can make it till the morning.
