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??

[HYPOCRACY]

The lapdance was free.

They should have cut the pizza into eight slices. That way it would only have been $37.50 a slice.

[TexasGunLover]

Suites have minimums for each event for food and drinks. No surprise here.

[tflabo]

Total rip!

Dang. How much did he give for the tip?

My company has a luxury suite at Yankee stadium that we usually use for clients. Every now and then, a client cancels and the employees get a crack at using it. When employees use it, they are responsible for paying for food and drink.

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.

Dang. How much did he give for the tip?

His left testicle?

[Who is John Galt?]

"...After receiving six slices of pepperoni pizza and a standard bucket of tenders, the friend in question had to fork out a staggering $653..."

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.

[Leaning Right]

This reminds me of the time some friends and I pitched in and bought a $1000 pizza. All in all I think it was a fair price.

[desertsolitaire]

No six slices was better. No way could I have eaten 8 slices.

[RummyChick]

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.

[Political Junkie Too]

I guess those $600 hammers that the Department of Defense were buying are a major steal now...
