The Real Cost of Attending a Football Game(infographic)

why on earth would you need to get food, drinks, and a souvenir at every game? even parking can be had for free in most markets if you try hard enough and you're willing to walk.

i haven't paid for anything other than a six pack of bud light for the walk to the dome in years. maybe one beer inside at halftime to "refuel."

there are ways not to spend money.

Fair enough; point made.

Even so, there are not too many "safe" places to park for free (within walking distance) in the CBD during gametime. And if/when the weather is bad... you're sure not gonna walk in a New Orleans downpour.

The stats cite a TYPICAL fan. Some buy a lot more than that. And of course, some (like you) buy a lot less.

It's just a basic comparison.
