Hot Dog Inflation
If you have been to a sporting event recently, you have probably noticed ticket prices have gotten a lot more expensive.
Ticket prices aren't the only thing going up only at breakneck speed.
Check out the price of a Hot Dog at every MLB ballpark:
No surprise the California parks lead the pack in expensive dogs but how about those Blue Jays. Cheapest dogs in MLB? Not really, they run a promotion every Tuesday home game called Loonie Dogs night where you can buy hot dogs for a dollar. It is sponsored by Schneiders. This definitely skews the avg price dramatically as typically around 40k dogs are consumed on loonie dog nights. The regular price for a dog at Rogers Centre is around $6.50 Canadian (4.75 US) which would put them 11th on this list.
It will be interesting to revisit this in a couple years and see how much prices have risen.
Sats for all,
