Concessions at the Barn are whack

If anyone says they like those chips, they don't have to also say they're over 60yo. NO ONE else likes those chips without a bong and french onion dip (separately, hopefully)

I love those chips.

It may have to do with the fact that the director of marketing is a very close friend, but still...

back to the original post though... HFS this is crazy.

Also, I did confirm, visually, not through purchase, that "meal" is the same price at The Brickhouse.

Drew's Popcorn is the best. Always get it at WBB games.

Five Guys prices for Aramark quality, and I won't even go to Five Guys due to their prices.

What a joke. People want quality food. They don't want roach bait at premium prices.

I wonder how "fan first" their ticket prices are

You can literally buy one of each of those items for less than it costs a family of four (4) at Williams Arena for armpit brats, bags of crumbs and bottled ground water.

I'm reminded of the days when my parents filled a Piggly Wiggly bag with popcorn and a Coleman thermos filled with lemonade for our trip to the Drive-in to see 'The Apple Dumpling Gang Rides Again'. I understand it now, Dad.

I truly admire Arthur Blank for doing this, although he does have many billions to cushion the financial blow.

Someone has to pay the 6 million for the Ben boner.

The souvenir is the hangover.

Worth it.

Maybe just give season ticket holders a 30% off concessions. I mean we all have the ticket app, put in a barcode to scan at the register.

Treat season ticket holders like a loyalty program vs just a ticket base you can continue to get max $ from.

Heck, lets even get creative on concessions. In the app, give me different deals each game. Or would even be ok with varaible pricing game by game. Dont charge me $18 dollars for the exhibition game vs ND. But by all means charge $18 when the badgers fans come to town.

Thoughtful and sensible ideas.

Change your best U concession team.

Go Gophers!!

Like any entertainment venue that gouges a person because there is no market competition, I simply don't purchase items that are extremely overpriced. I eat beforehand and get something afterward, but eating during the entertainment when prices are far too high is not an option for me. I go by the concessions at the Barn only to find my seat, use the restroom, or get a drink at the water fountain.

You stop paying the absurd prices they will come down. Unfortunately too many just pay whatever is asked.

Once we get into parka season, there is almost no limit to what you can sneak into the arena. I think I'm going to bring a grill and some brats one of these nights.

How do you know if someone is cheap, a vegan or a crossfit bro?

Don't worry, they'll be sure to tell you.

The key is to go eat before the game at Campus Pizz...er Big 1... er nevermind.

What does your comment have to do with my choosing to eat before the game or after the game rather than pay exorbitant prices for poor quality food at the Barn concessions? I have no idea what your question is implying. Is it a joke you're telling? I see people laughed at your comment. Is it a Gen Z joke that is funny to about 10 people while the rest have no idea what the joke is? Let us know what your point is.
