It is the most expensive stadium I've been to. Parking, food, beer, and tickets.

$8 bud lights and the like. There are several concessions that sale. There's also a bar area on one of the concourses.

If out by DFW airport: Meat U Anywhere or Bartleys, both in Grapevine, are solid.

I bet the new Falcons stadium is worse. They're trying to distract everyone with $2 hotdogs though.

Just make sure that you do not sit in field level suites.

This x1000 get there early for burnt ends.
Beer in the stadium was like 10 bucks for the Miller lite aluminum pints. Miller is just about all they sold.

Jerry's World is the most expensive football stadium in the country, if not, right up there, from the stadium parking, concessions, everything is expensive.Booze up outside first. Eat outside first. Get to the gates early.

I don't care for Texas BBQ.
But I can recommend parking at J Gilligans and enjoying the bar. Then taking their shuttle over to the stadium. It's like $7 a person and it's round trip. Very well set up. You won't be disappointed.

That might have something to do with the two teams being very mediocre for what's really a very long away game for both teams.

Our hotel provides free shuttle within 5 miles radius. J Gilligans clocks in at 4.9 miles.

I went for LSU vs TCU. From my memory they serve alcohol until the end of the 3rd, the seats are extremely comfortable and I spent half the game watching the huge monitor.
Enjoy your game.
Enjoy your game.

Based on the ticket prices dropping like crazy on Stub Hub, I am not expecting a full stadium at all... MAYBE 80%, maybe.
I got SRO tix for TCU in 2013 from someone on TD for $10-20 I don't remember exactly but it was cheap
