This Sunday is the 15th anniversary of 9/11. A Walmart in Panama City Beach, Florida decided to pay tribute by building a replica of the Twin Towers using 12-packs of Coke.

Coca-Cola released a statement yesterday that said they came up with the idea, and Walmart approved it. The display was taken down yesterday after people complained.

A Coke spokesperson said, "This display was meant to honor local firefighters and to support their organization's upcoming event. We sincerely apologize that anyone was offended or misunderstood its intent, and we have replaced the display."
