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'.

I work for a Triple-A farm team as a Customer Service and Sanitarian for the concessions company. We have so much food that is thrown away (because you cannot resell it) or donated.
I have been able to provide food for senior citizens and poor families. I do my best to help provide for those in need.
Some spendthrifts have to find out the hard way. Thrifty spenders find ways to make the most out of the money they spend on food. The spendthrift gets stuck with the bill while thrifty spenders are sticking it to inflation by being principled budgeteers.
My dad would take us kids to an Oilers game back in the 1970’s. He would take us to a pizza place and get all us filled up before going into the dome.
I remember going to Tiger Stadium when you could bring home-packed sandwiches, chips and stuff to the game but it wasn’t long after that when they put a stop to it.
