Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos Recall Their First Time in the Mountains Together: “You and I Stared, and We Were Like, ‘Look At It. It Looks Like a Coors Can’”

Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos had a core—well actually, Coors—memory that they shared with viewers on Friday’s Live with Kelly and Mark.

After Consuelos read that the upcoming Winter Olympics “are inspiring mountain travel,: Ripa recalled the first time she, Consuelos, and their children, who were young at the time, “experienced the mountains together.”

“And you and I stared, and we were like, ‘Look at it. It looks like a Coors can,’” she shared. “Because that was our whole mountain reference, the can of Coors.

The co-host couple eventually learned that they were in fact visiting the mountain range featured in the design of the iconic beer can.

Ripa quipped, “If you can’t get to the mountain, get yourself a Coors can, and I’m telling you…”

Consuelos chimed in, “Just stare at it.”

Ripa continued, “… it looks just like that. Just bigger. It’s a bigger version.”

According to Uncover Colorado, the design on the Coors can is inspired by Wilson Peak, located in the San Juan Mountains in Colorado. The state of Colorado is also home to Coors’ Golden Brewery in Golden, Colorado.

Meanwhile the 2026 Winter Olympics are taking place in Milan and Cortina d’Ampezzo, Italy. The opening ceremony is set to occur on Friday, Feb. 6, and events run through Sunday, Feb. 22.

Following their host chat, Ripa and Consuelos Walton Goggins and Haley Lu Richardson on Friday’s episode. The two will welcome Sir Ben Kingsley on Monday’s installment.
