A warning from Brasil for all you celebrity endorsers out there.
Always be aware of your surroundings...and especially being photographed...with the competition.
Football star Ronaldinho, 32, learned that painful lesson.
The talented soccer star...was seen at a press conference sitting near 2 prominently displayed cans of Pepsi.
That was enough to soundly piss-off his sponsor Coke.
Coke dropped him faster than a smelly sneaker...from a $750,000 annual contract...that ran thru 2014.
Ouch!
