I know it's not baseball-related but this post reminded me: I always loved those bowling-pin-shaped bottles of Budweiser they used to sell (still sell? IDK) at bowling alleys.
"No matter what the score of the game, Del Ray will and has been raking in some points of his own. Sales began in January and in the past six months, he has sold over 40,000 helmets... At $17 to $18.95 a piece..." in 1985!
Doug this article got me thinking about beer prices for fans and margins for teams. Do you have any sense of how much a team pays for beer that they serve at their stadiums?
