If people would quit buying shite, they would get the message.
Bitching ain't gonna change a thing. When they have to start throwing away tons of food because you have to put the rot-gut shite on lay-a-way.....that will move the needle.
I have had season tickets for 22 years. I have not bought food at BDS in 4 years. I buy one souvenir cup a year now. That's it.

This has been one of my biggest complaints for years. Its one of the reasons the Universities had NO leg to stand on when they wanted to keep players amateurs. They fully cashed out on all the traditions and things that made cfb special for 100 years. Salaries in ADs are insane

It is also why it is utterly ridiculous for them to expect rank and file fans to enter into a subscription NIL service. I am giving you plenty of money, sounds like a you problem that you haven't figured out how to take all the money I am giving you and redirect it to the athletes. I get that Alabama can't be trailblazer on the solution but I am not seeing enough gusto on that front in my opinion.

Food, non alcoholic drinks are included in the tickets prices for our club seats at Bryant Denny. Not worth the price to me but the wife loves sitting there. I usually eat before I go to the basketball games. The prices are too high but that’s at any sporting event, concert.

Yeah, and the pretzel was inedible because of how much salt they put on it. But the boy had a good time

If you don't agree with the prices or quality don't spend your money on it.

When I go to a bball game I make sure to eat and drink before I go and I usually don't get any concessions at all. I would split a coke with someone if I was thirsty but for 3 hours indoors it's not hard to avoid buying anything.

This. If they have a problem, take it up with the Levy Restaurant group out of Chicago, because that's who controls concessions. Or just don't buy it if it's a bad value. frickers go to one game every other year and act like they are owed some kind of discount experience.
Someone is honestly complaining because they spent $27 once on an underwhelming amount of food? Sure, that's an expensive sausage, but if $27 has any affect on your life at all, you probably had no business buying basketball tickets. And you certainly didn't have any business spending it on sausage.
Just don't buy it.

That’s the company, Levy’s.

The food got noticeably worse this year.
Smaller portions on the nachos, hot dogs looked like crap…

Yes the food is horribly overpriced but so was the bratwurst I bought at the German Christmas market in Cullman today. And has anyone checked the concessions prices at Talladega Superspeedway or Suntrust Park? Or your average movie theater?
Why is there an expectation that things should be different for a college sports event? You’re a captive audience, it’s either pay what they ask or don’t eat or drink.
