A college football fan was left stunned after being charged an eye-watering three-figure sum for pizza and chicken at a game on Saturday.
Sports bettor Bill Krackomberger revealed on X that one of his friends was hit with an insane bill after ordering food in a VIP suite at Allegiant Stadium, where the University of Nevada, Las Vegas was taking on San Diego State.
After receiving six slices of pepperoni pizza and a standard bucket of tenders, the friend in question had to fork out a staggering $653.
Krackomberger shared photos online of the food and the check, which shows that the pizza alone was priced at an inexplicable $300 - working out as $50 per slice.
The 'crispy chicken tenders' then cost $190, while there was also just over $163 to pay in administrative charges and taxes.
The pizza sold to the fan in the Allegiant Stadium suite appears to have come from Las Vegas restaurant 'Pizza Rock'.

absolute fools to cater to anything major league!! is it really you/they are sports fans, of are they going to up or fit in or impress with peers??
The lapdance was free.
They should have cut the pizza into eight slices. That way it would only have been $37.50 a slice.
Suites have minimums for each event for food and drinks. No surprise here.
Total rip!
Dang. How much did he give for the tip?
That came as quite a surprise the night I got to use it. I remember a six-pack of beer came to nearly $100. They charge you as if you are buying it at the concession stand and then they charge service fees on top of that.
His left testicle?
Must have been handled under a federal government contract...
What did he expect?
Suites are for Corporate tax write-offs.
Years ago, my brother got suite tickets for the College World Series for one game so he invited my son and I to attend. My son wanted to order via phone an ice cream sundae. Gave him a $20 and he came back with around $10. Told him I wanted a bite of a $10 sundae.
This is the type of price gouging Kamala was going to stop! Shoulda voted for her.
No six slices was better. No way could I have eaten 8 slices.
So based on your experience does $300 for a pizza sound right? Not including admin fee or tip. It seems a college game should cost less than a professional game.
