The people who run MB stadium learned they actually make more money by charging less because they sell more volume. It’s an easy concept but I think greed gets in the way of common sense. It seems most stadiums try to maximize profits per item rather than how much they make overall.I don't understand it, but some Pro stadiums like MB in ATL are utterly affordable. I was shocked last year @ Syracuse.
I said it last week: brilliant marketing strategy. They get people in 3 hours early, then they have a captive audience now a little limbered up to pay for full price concessions for the latter 2 hours and game. Judging from the shortage of concessions by the second quarter, it worked.The people who run MB stadium learned they actually make more money by charging less because they sell more volume.

Soŕry to break this to you but high markups on alcohol aren't isolated to just Neyland stadium, football, or sports in general. Bars, clubs, restaurants, concert venues and pretty much everywhere that alcohol is sold at has a high markup.Just shows how much money they've been ripping off that they are able to half the price.
Wasn’t affordable concession prices one of the factors the Falcon owner had to agree to in order to secure public money to help build it? I remember that being discussed during the funding stages but I’m not in Ga so I can’t say for sure.The people who run MB stadium learned they actually make more money by charging less because they sell more volume.
