Beer Prices Do Change the World
I used to be like that. It really burned me up to pay no less than $100 to $150 to attend one ball game (tickets included). I used to think of it as legalized robbery. I used to think; I pay for your stadiums and your ridiculous player salaries through crazy ticket prices – at the very least give me a break on the beer and food. That is until my son started playing football and I got the St. Louis Cardinals crash course in concession stand fund-raising.
You see; concessions are run by volunteers and many of those volunteers are typically the parents of children who play on one of the many local little league sports teams. A very healthy piece of that beer money goes to support local little league sports teams. Be it football, basketball, baseball, soccer or gymnastics; the money helps supplement equipment: jerseys, shorts, socks, shoes, etc. It allows for otherwise underprivileged children to participate. It helps parents that are working to make ends meet get their kids involved in activities that keep them headed in the right direction.
So I look at it this way; in a loose sense, beer prices really do have the chance to save the world.
Your so much more accepting of the high price of concessions real life stl maniac,
