Concessions 2006

How were they? How much did they charge?

At AZ, there were no concessions whatsoever and a single vending machine that was nearly sold out on everything by Friday lunchtime.

At SoCal, they charged like $5.50 for nachos and $8 for a cheeseburger.

If you ask me, FIRST should do this: Approach the arena and say "how much did you make off of us last year; we'll pay you that much this year to go away" and then set up their own cheaper concessions to make back some of that cost. I know money is tight for FIRST, but maybe they just need to find somebody to outright sponsor the food.
