~$6 at the Metrodome ~$5.50 at Miller Park
last year prices, I haven't drank at a game yet this year, ate mushrooms before three. Smoked excessively at the Metrodome on many occasions.

Jesse Christ, It's been two years and the shits gone to $6 
As if $5.50 isn't inflated enough for watered down beer.

its about 7 bux here for a regular beer and 11 for a tall boy. keep in mind these are canadian funds, but with our dollar climbing up against the US, its not much diffrent any more. seriously shitty prices
We went to opening night and it cost me more then twice as much for 2 beers and a dog then it did for the ticket.
Its a shame its so expensive, like OMR says its part of the experience. i cant go to a ball game and not have a beer or a dog.. its just natural, but when its coming to the point that i need to save up a few bux to go, just cuz the beer is so overpriced, thats a lil shady IMO.
Its like strip clubs, you pay X amount for the beer and Y amount cuz your being entertained while you drink it. Its just a shame Y is getting to be a bit too big of a number.

I agree, if you want decent seats at a ball game, and you are on low income, you can't enjoy the casualness of a few beers at that price.

I think Beer and Dag prices should reflect on the seat price you pay.
