Alabama makes an embarrassing amount of money off concessions.
Like I mentioned in a previous post, the groups get 10% to work it, the contracted company that handles the concessions gets about 10% also, sales tax is 9% or so, and cost is probably 10%.
So, the University is pocketing about 60% of gross sales.
Insane, IMO.
And to give you an idea of how much an average fan spends, in my estimation it's about $5 or more per game.
So, 100k fans, nets $500,000 in concessions.
University grabs about $300,000 to do virtually nothing.
