Jesse: Are you financing your trip to the game?

It’s a cliché, I know.

“It’s so expensive to go to a professional sporting event these days!”

Well, it is, and I have the floor today. So here’s an analysis of my trip to the baseball game last night. Now, thankfully I didn’t have to pay for every piece of this, but many do. Here’s what a trip for two to the ballpark cost us:

2 Tickets: $90.00
Parking: $15.00
2 Pork Sandwiches: $19.00
1 Medium Coke: $4.00
3 Beers: $21.75
1 Bag of Peanuts: 3.75
1 Obligatory Souvenir That You Know Is A Rip-off But You Have To Buy It Anyway: $8.00

Total Event Cost: $161.50

That’s insane.

It’s so expensive to go to a professional sporting event these days.
