Mustard and Blue

I'm going to recruit Ryan ASAP.

no recruitment needed. it is 8.50 for the monster can of beer at the sommet. you get 2 more ounces and save .50 standing in line at the consession stand.

How many ounces in the monster can? 16? that's .53/oz So...if you get 18 oz for 8.00 that would be .44/oz.

i think the concession stand was 24 and the monster was 22. although that could be backwards. sense would tell you it is anyway.

cans are 24 oz

i knkow i have been on this topic on the other boards. i am a little bit of a beer snob, and that being said, ya, i would have a problem spending that kind of maoney on bud,etc.. but spending 5-6 bucks for a 12 oz sierra nevada, while is high, isnt the end of the world to me. i would spend 4-5 at a bar for it. i just bought 2 beera in chicago liqour store (22 oz) for 11 bucks a piece, and brought em home. difference is, i dont sit and have 5-7 beers at a hockey game, and for that matter, at a bar i hardly drinnk that much in a night.

i understand the dilemma, but think some people are going to be offended by it more than others. thats fine. dont by it. or buy the better beer and get a slightly better deal

So .35 for the monster beer can and, if the concession beer is 2 oz more for .50 less that would make it .31/oz for the large beer.

We are debating the cost per ounce of beer.


We REALLY NEED TRAINING CAMP LIKE NOW!

Calculating is different from debating.

Still, I couldn't give two flying ##### about the price of beer, nachos, or even if the team charges for condiments. The sports business has strayed far from it's rootswhere the poor would eat a hot dog with the rich. Now we are in an age where sports teams cater to the rich and the middle class and poor watch the game in a sports bar or home. Sports have failed us as a whole and the iconocastic nature of the business has reached a point where sports are a game for the richer members of society. Where season tickets and luxury boxes are the standard of measure of success not wins, losses, and obtaining talent.

But in the end it's the price you pay for the team you love. We are called fanatics because our attachment to a team has no logical reason and you must pay the illogical choice to keep the team you illogically love. Soon and I mean very soon people within the ranks of sports need to realize the base they are leaving behind and soon teams must realize that there is more to their business than the business. When the rich walk away from your team it's the jo blow fan who fights to save you. When the glamor fades, the blue collar fan embraces your colors through thick and thin. Owners and players should realize their obligations when it comes to sport and realizing there is more to business. The owners are failing to realize this obligation when they build billion dollar monoliths on tax payer money. The players are failing this when they fight for more and more money and benifits when the numbers have gone well past Monopoly money levels. It's also a failure on the part of the media's part when they fail to embrace the cynicism of the sports as a whole and aiming their disgust at specific players and owners instead of looking at the process as a whole.

In the end, if you want the prices you demand for beer to go down you might have to kill the Predators in the process. Debate that if you will.

BEER GOOD. LOTS OF BEER BETTER.
