Brain Game: The Return of Stan the Man

Stan was behind the wheel as he drove three fellow employees to an out-of-state business conference. He wanted his passengers to be comfortable for the trip, so he stopped at a convenience store to get bottled soft drinks for himself and his passengers - Carl, Dave, and Paul. The beverages he purchased were: a Coke, a Sprite, a Pepsi One, and a Diet Dr Pepper.

Based on the clues that follow, determine which man got which drink. Good luck!

1. Stan did not get a diet drink, but Dave did. 2. Paul drank a cola, unlike Carl. 3. Only one man shared the first letter of his name with the first letter of the name of his beverage.

Here is the SOLUTION.

THE SOLUTION:

Stan enjoyed his Sprite, while
Carl downed the Diet Dr Pepper,
Dave had the Pepsi One, and
Paul drank the Coke.
