The answer is definitely "yes". Pricing (tickets and concessions) is a horse that has beaten to death around here, and rightfully so. Most of the regulars that sit around me have given up on buying beer and crap food, or greatly reduced it. Instead, they hit up Kildare's beforehand, and the tailgates in the parking lot are growing every week.

Of course, they are free to price their beer as they wish, and I am free not to buy it. I'm just waiting for the tailgate crackdown to try and force those pesky loyal supporters inside earlier for the Spruce Meadows shakedown.

As one of the few CP people I know in real life, next time you go, send me a message. I go to 2/3 of the matches as part of a season ticket split, and I'm right next door in 109. I'll even buy you a beer - before entering.
