NFL concessions don’t have to be obscenely expensive. Unless it’s the Super Bowl, which sets upon its fans with the eagerness of an airport marking up a three ounce bag of Cheez-Its to $12.
As per tradition, the game with the most expensive tickets of the year — the cheapest available seat Sunday morning was $3,600 — also has the most expensive food and beverage lineup. Super Bowl 56 takes place in a $5 billion stadium and has prices that suggest Los Angeles is trying to make that up one “super cocktail” at a time. While a few relatively cheap items like $5 hot dogs and $4 soft pretzels remain, a standard beverage-sandwich-side trifecta will run you at least $30 at the big game and $40 if you want to add a little booze to the mix.
Super Bowl concession prices. $17 for a michelob ultra seems like a lot but it is very warm in SoFi. 🤷🏻♂️ pic.twitter.com/u8kFV3LByI
