People can try and be the helpers at any point. Life can be like that. You don't have to accept it. But it don't hurt to try.
For the rest of the world, 16 oz is approximately 500 g so I guess that's equivalent to a 500 ml bottle.
$2 for that is actually pretty reasonable for an event.
It's confusing, but there are two different units: "oz" (ounces) and "fl oz" (fluid ounces). Ounces are a unit of weight and fluid ounces are a unit of volume. But it's not always written explicitly as "fl oz", sometimes it's shortened to just "oz" and you get from context they mean the fluid ones.
So 16 oz in that context means 16 fl oz, which is about 473 ml.
For water, they're actually equivalent, just like grams and milliliters. As the old saying goes, "a pint's a pound the world around, but mainly in the U.S. and Liberia."
And not in the UK
Word is that the nachos are stale, and come with pickles and cold cheese.
I'd much rather go to San Antonio, get some churros
Why? There'll be a Filiberto's mere minutes away. That's like a whole day of driving from Phoenix to San Antonio.
That's still more than I would pay.
$2 for a bottle of water is a robbery
It may be, but it's a standard price that you would find outside of a sporting event.
Mother of face fucking god, that's terrible pricing. We're buying 6packs of 1.5L bottles of carbonated water sometimes and it's like 2-3 Euros, and contains more than 24 times more water than this joke of a bottle o.O
$2.75 at the vending machine at work.
Well of course, that's the point of being in a captive audience, like at the movie theater or airport. At least they aren't bleeding you for $8.50 for the same bottle. Makes it hurt a little less if one of your treats in life is watching a game, and someone needs to start the precedent of slowing down the momentum of overcharging for basic goods
Damn, imagine if you went to every game
If I was a fan I'd be sat wondering why they'd been happily talking a 75+% profit margin from me after I'd already bought a ticket to be there.
If they could just not, when they feel like it
