I'm sure this will come as no surprise to anyone who goes to the Dome. Overall, Saints home games were ranked #17 cheapest so right in the middle. (Cincy cheapest, Washington most expensive)

But I loved that the authors called out SR.com's pet peeve - beer prices! :beerchug:

The cost of Saints tickets, about $50 on average, helps Mercedez-Benz Stadium rank among the cheaper NFL stadiums to attend a game. Refreshments and parking, however, are on the more expensive side, especially the $9 cost for a 16-ounce beer.

It's actually $10 now. If you drink Stella, it's a bargain at $11. I tried just sipping, but it's a hard thing to do.
 
I dont drink so there is really no problem, for me at least.
Do you buy a coke for $6 or a bottle of water for $4? How about a $7 popcorn? No one is immune unless you don't buy anything. It's really ridiculous if you think about it. But we all submit to it and buy something.

I guess that doesn't bother me, beer is routinely $11 for domestic here in ATL.
You'll be lucky to find it for $9 at a sporting event or concert.

If you go to one of the smaller venues, you might find it for $7-$8 a beer.

In bars, shoot.....get ready to start a tab with a credit card. :hihi:
 
I don't visit the concessions or drink the dome foam anymore either. If one of those venders comes by with a cold soda or water I may buy it if my throat is dry from screaming but that is it. If they don't catch me I'll sneak my peanuts in the dome as well.
 
Yea I just sneak in a flask of crown and buy two sprites, one for the first half and one for the second half and im good. A couple games last year I was able to sneek in a whole 5th of fireball and was drinking it straight out the bottle the entire game.
 
plastic flasks still get through the wand waiving at the gates for me
There's a new walk through system now. The wand never picked up on my 'non metal' flask but it has that shiny surface and makes me nervous.

I would think the high price on the "Dome Foam,hah" is a way to regulate the inebriation level of the masses somewhat ....
 
Good God and I thought movie theater drinks were expensive. The building is stacked full of millionaires but they gotta make their money off beer??
 
1. Load up a bunch pregame

You can always stick where they are not allowed to search. They probably don't want a lawsuit.
