The only difference is...Tennessee is ranked tenth in the country and Oklahoma wasn't ranked at all.

We will be more than ready for Tennessee.

al.com did an article about how insane concession prices are at Coleman compared to other venues. LINK

quote:

The most expensive entrée at an Alabama game is the chicken and cheese quesadilla, coming in at a whopping $15.49. But it isn’t the only food item that can break the bank. Most classic entrées at Coleman Coliseum run about $15, including the quesadilla, chicken tenders, buffalo chicken nachos and much more.

Among those items is the classic cheeseburger -- a standard, no-frills burger that runs $14.49 and doesn’t come with fries. With that price tag -- and the lack of a side, it might just be the most expensive burger in Tuscaloosa.
quote:

It costs more than the double cheeseburger at Five restaurant, and that burger comes with fries. It costs more than the most expensive options at places like Hooligans and Five Guys. The plain cheeseburger at Alabama’s concessions stands costs more than even Rama Jama’s National Champ Burger -- which comes with 18 ounces of beef to celebrate the Alabama Crimson Tide football team’s 18 claimed national titles. Avenue Pub has one of the only burgers that costs more than one at an Alabama game, but it’s a bacon burger with a choice of side for $18. Same for Chez Fonfon in Birmingham, whose burger (with fries) also costs $18. I’ll let you choose which burger you’d rather pay for.

And the entrées at the game aren’t the only items with extremely high price tags. Concessions prices are always high -- it’s something sports fans are used to. But the prices at Coleman are something else. Just compare to Alabama’s closest in-state rival, Auburn.

Alabama concessions prices can be as much as double those at Auburn for similar items. Take the cheeseburger, for example. You can get a cheeseburger at Auburn for just $7, compared to Alabama’s $14.49.

What’s even more surprising to me is the long lines at the concession stands and the folks willing to pay it. It helps explain why they ran Chik-Fil-A out - you could get a sandwich and drink for $10. Last year at softball they moved them out of the concession stand into an old outdoor ice cream cart. When that didn’t deter the long lines they made them stop selling drinks - so you could still get a sandwich but had to go to another stand to get a drink. Can’t be having affordable competition.

Yeah that's something I don't understand. We've stopped eating at Coleman altogether. We'll go somewhere decent to eat before the game and still spend less money than we would on a mediocre burger. Or just go to Taco Casa and spend less than half.

Clearly the athletic department is money hungry.
They rip off everyone from the customer with high prices, the volunteer groups that work the stands with cheap "pay" (volunteer groups get a % of sales, but they'll get charged for silly things, like unsold hotdogs), and even the vendors that supply the food with narrow margin contracts.

In the pictures posted last night from their practice, he was participating. Looked like he was wearing a sleeve on one of his legs.
