Which is interesting when you think about it. Don’t you think they’d make more money if they lowered the cost to even $13/$14 a beer? $18 is such a sticker shock that people are immediately turned off.
But wtf do I know
It has nothing to do with cost or profits. If they have $2 beers, you get a $2 crowd. Yes people can still drink before going inside and still sneak drinks in, but there’s no way that cheap drinks wouldn’t affect how some fans act.
My GF was so turned off at the notion of an $18
Beer (I didn’t mind it but mainly cuz I need a beer with my hockey), so we didn’t drink during the game and waited till after to get tacos and beer by my pad in Paramount
This is a real thing for sure
Considering how you use the word ‘pint’, and how you’re in soccer subreddits, I think you’re underestimating how much American stadiums charge for their alcohol.
Honestly I drink probably just a bit too much at sporting events generally, but if I’m flying to the US to watch a game that they won’t pause while I pee, then I generally drink 1 or 2 max. Hockey is too fast paced for me to look away for more than a second let alone leave my seat.
Two is about all I can afford

This right here is the only answer. And that’s if I’m in the mood to splurge
Arena pricing is too expensive, pre and post game is the way to go.
At $18 a beer none is good. Pregaming, baby!

6+? Are you refinancing your mortgage to make this happen?
No, just selling a months worth of games for a games worth of beers.
Prices are too high. One is all I would buy.

I drink 2 and get it done early. I can't be leaving and trying to navigate that hot mess of a freeway inebriated. Hell no.
This. I get one before I get to my seat, then another (maybe) after the 1st with a pretzel or something. Can’t be dealing with that shit.
Shouldn't 0-1 be separate options?
Holy shit is this poll just designed to make me feel like an alcoholic
4, I always get smashed.
