Thanks! I have no idea why copy and pasting url's do not work for me 90% of the time. I have tried so many different combinations and nothing is logical.

I have seen these for quite a while. I was in Vegas a few weeks ago and they had one of the machines in Taco Bell. Had to get me a beer with my late night combo. haha

How about everyone drink before the games and I don't buy beer at the games. Only a matter of time before beer prices drop.

That's a great idea. You will have a few that would not boycott this idea, but a couple of games into this and they might get the idea. They are making a ton of profit. I think labor is free because they volunteer from different schools and they get a percentage of the take. Are something in that order. I like my beer, but not the price I see some of you quoting on here. You can purchase a case of beer for what you pay for a cup at the dome. So for you that can't pass up having a beer or two, have at it. But I will pass.

I know that the concessions are manned by volunteers at Cajun Field and softball for sure, but games at the Cajundome are staffed - at least partially - by paid employees. That said, yes, the beer prices are a little high, and I don't even buy any. But you can bet they're (understandably) going to try to recoup their $30 million investment before we see any kind of meaningful drop in prices.

If a bottle of water is $5, I will literally be DYING before I would buy that. Esp when they have to have water fountains somewhere in the building.

If you make that $2, I'd buy a couple per game. That's an extra $4 you make versus ZERO. AND you are still making a TON of profit.

Do people really say this in a non joking manner?

I almost got into a physical altercation at the Tulane football game with a Too-lame fan because his wife was upset that I was standing up and cheering for the Cajuns BETWEEN plays. She wanted the see the "action" between plays.

I decided to move over into one of the MANY, MANY available seats rather than sit down the entire game.

Some people think College sports fans should act like they are at mass.

I haven't been to a basketball game in years so I am curious, does anybody have a comparison to the bear prices at the Cajundome versus what they are at a bar or nice restaurant? Like on an ounce to ounce comparison.

I think a lot of people are doing this. When it was $7 I would average 3 a game. I've only bought 1 beer since. Not worth waiting in line for to pay that much. How much does it cost them $.50 to a $1 per beer. They are not maximizing profit.

My dad bought a burger and it cost him $9.50

32 oz of yuengling is 10 bucks at the game vs 16 oz at a resturant is like 3.50 .. so $7 vs $10

Here's the next question. Like I said, I didn't see the crowd. Was it a legit 4,491, or was the bottom level half full and that was just the reported number? Because when I made the post, I was going off of "bottom level half full," which says 2,500 or so people, which is a bad number.

felt legit to me. I wouldn't say the crowd was "rowdy" but our section had a lot of back and forth as a couple groups of jack ___ Tech fans made the trip and felt they should talk ____, even down almost 20 so our fans responded. Had lots of fun and the team played really well. Needless to say, it was a lot of fun.

I'm thinking he first-three minutes of the game was more of a measure of the two teams than the last seven. Very few shooters hit seven threes out of eight even unguarded.

This team is averaging over ninety points a game, people should take note, and go.

We also need to hold people to a few less than those teams individual averages. According to none other than John Wooden that is hard to do when your offense is clicking, the opponents get more chances to score. He gauged his defense on scoring margins mostly.
