I've been to very little games lately except a couple of uab hoops games where its just a hot dog , coke and popcorn. ... but if theres 10 dollar beers it could be around 100 bucks.

I imagine that's how most people rack up a bill, curious to see how much people spend on avg and what % is on alcohol

The last time i went to a falcons game i spent around 100 , on 6-8 beers a slice of pizza and dipping dots.

I dont know how people do that 8 times a year.

What will really piss you off is when you want to spend money and can't. The last time i went to a braves game (which is the last time i will ever went to a braves game ) they quit selling beer in the middle of the 7th inning , and the game went to 13 innings.

F that ! i'm drying up !

Used to spend about $50 on average for beer, and less than $10 on food.

Now I enjoy liquor more so I sneak in a flask and spend about $10 on 2 cokes and less
when a stadium does free refills on large cokes.

Havent bought food the last 4 times out, I cant stand spending $5-7 on a shitty hot dog or hamburger.

Last Colts game, I got water and peanuts. Was prob $10. They tried to not even give me the cap for the water until I demanded it. Their reasoning was projectiles. What? If I wanted to throw the bottle at someone, the cap wouldn't have anything to do with it. Not to mention without a cap, very easy to get kicked over. I could drink the good water, fill it with shit water and then blast an unsuspecting Patriot fan. Hehe

If you had the cap you could throw it farther then Andrew

This should be called last of the big spender thread.
Carry in your own food and booze.

Bet noone tips the waitress at a restaurant either.

I hate overpaying, I do my best not to splurge with jacked up prices. If the food was great I wouldnt care paying a high price. But when a $10 hot dog taste worse than a 7-11 dog. It always dissapoints

About the same as I spend at the movie theaters which is way too much. If I'm buying alcohol which I typically don't these days, then it can really add up.

Back in my younger days, I remember going to Oakland Coliseum on Wednesday night games. Their bleacher seats were dirt cheap and they had dollar dogs and two dollar beers. Those were the days...

My theory on this is the same as going to fine restaurants.

If you can't afford to leave a tip, then don't eat there.

If you can't afford the concessions & enjoy the full experience, then why bother.

Same as going to the movies.

I see so many ppl without drinks, popcorn, or anything else.

It's part of the experience...
