Utah Hockey Club announces reduced concession prices for popular items

That is ridiculous! The Lays chips are a dollar a bag at Dollarama, and fountain pop averages 30-50 cents per serving for the seller.

Don’t forget your 15%-20% tip also!

I’m a pretty decent tipper. But I’ll never tip at places that charge that. Or charge you $16/tall can of beer

Truly is a generous owner that's for sure.

I’m a decent tipper, and even I’ve all but stopped tipping on iPads. If I’m signing on an iPad, there’s a good chance I’m standing at a counter being handed stuff out of a fridge or fryer, not receiving actual tip-worthy table service. Counters are for tip jars and spare change, not full-blown percentage tips. We lost the plot on this at some point.

Obvious exceptions for places like bars, but even then — I’ll toss a bartender a buck for pouring a beer, but a percentage-based gratuity for that is laughable. There’s a difference between hand-mixing a cocktail and operating a beer tap (or worse, just pulling a bottle out of a bucket and handing it to you). That’s like tipping at McDonald’s because they poured you a soda.

Ya never understood people shitting on purified water. Like it's just water with a tiny bit of salts added.

Dasani isn’t even purified water. It’s just Atlanta tap water put into bottles.

These absurd prices are why people sneak shit in. Or try to.

And rightfully so.

Good on Utah.

. . . or better yet, just stay home and watch the game on your big screen TV with a fridge nearby.

Watching sports on a big flat-screen TV is much better than the 26" colour cathode-ray tubes some of us are old enough to have grown up with.

Quite aside from the high prices for everything -- tickets, parking and food -- and the travel time, I was turned off of live MLB games for a few years when a drunk fan behind me barfed down the back of my neck.

This isn't the 1960s anymore. We can watch these games pretty well and much more comfortably at home.
