The Gun Of Bavaria Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Wow. I went to the Detroit - Buffalo preseason game at Ford Field last night and holy shiite muslim I thought things were expensive at Comerica Park for the Tigers. Parking near the stadium: $40, $35, $30 as you moved away Parking Away From The Stadium: $25, $20 Hot Dog: $4.25 Large Soda: $5.50 Ft Long Bratwurst: $8.50 16oz Bottled Beer: $7.50 My dinner of Bratwurst, fries and a soda last night: $16.50 Small (and I mean small) Foam Lions football I was going to get for my goddaughter and her siblings: $15.00 This is the Lions we're talking about here. I wouldn't have to pay these prices at a Titty Bar, specially the beer. I know the NFL season is shorter but holy christ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugg Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Doesn't sound all that different than Shea or Yankee Stadiums, especially with the beer. One thing both NY teams did right-they have Nathan's hot dog stands and that's the brand they sell throughout the stadium, which is a marked improvment from the usual crappy ballpark frank. Still isn't worth $4.50. With tailgating, don't remember the last time I bought anything to eat a the Meadowlands, but domestic beer in plastic bottles is around $6.50.

124 Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 $25-20 to park AWAY from the stadium? The rest of the prices seem about right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the NFL season is shorter but holy christ cut back on the daily pitstops to Dunkin Donuts and you might be able to afford more.. You expects the Fords to subsidize your Donut fetish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dickkotite Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 BEFORE WE GET OFF ON THE WRONG FOOT LET ME ADD THAT I AM A SUPPORTER OF CAPITALISM ooops sorry to a certain point. if capitalism means that it is ok for the tigers to charge 100 for parking, because there exists 65,000 patrons who, desite their rage, will fork it over, thats where i drop off and see warning flags i guess to a staunch supporter of capitalism, i should shut up and take my dirty sneakers elsewhere. but like i said, capitalism is fine and honorable until it becomes a monolpoly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those prices exist because peole will gladly pay it. All I can do is park in my super-secret parking area for cops only right next to Comerica Park.
