Yeah could be the case. Or they have too much money. I say all this and I'm sure people wonder why people like me buy multiple $18 beers haha.I got nothing to back this up but I feel like a lot of those people who do that tend to only see a few games a season or maybe that's even the only game a season they see so to them it's just part of the splurge for the night.
Affordable concessions are going to come back to some degree, at least for a while.
People are just completely tapped out, there's no more blood to get out of the stone at the moment.
I'll never understand why people go to a sporting event and order a full meal like this. I guess it might just be people who didn't have time to eat dinner beforehand, but I often see people with multiple rounds of food and it always confuses me.
Some franchises yes, but I don't see it as a trend.
Not sure why more arena concessions don't follow this. There is argument to be made that concessions would be almost as profitable by reducing cost while increasing sales. Selling two pops as a dollar profit is just as good as selling one pop at two dollars profit.
Sour Patch Kids are $15 when I was at the Air Canada Centre before COVID...and that's for one of the smaller bags (350g I think)I know at Honda Center hot dogs are $9 and water is $8, don’t know about other arenas
Not to get all aCtUaLlY on you but labor, food, storage, etc costs would go up selling twice as much making the same "profit".
I love the idea of what Utah is doing here though. I pretty much avoid eating at all costs at the LCA here in Detroit because it's so expensive.
The food is as grotesque as the prices they charge for those same items.Those grotesque prices are true in all the Canadian markets. We get gouged up here.

Not too sure how close we are to the tipping point up here where people just stop going to games because the costs (not just for the tickets but all the extras too) get too high. But we are likely getting close. Other than Montreal and Toronto (imo) the Canadian clubs need to have winning teams or their attendance will drop dramatically.The food is as grotesque as the prices they charge for those same items.
Yes. Last time i was at rogers i paid like 60$ for 3 slices of Pizza 73 pizza. 3 fountain sodas and movie theater sized chocolate bar.
