Important to organise a friend on the other side of the fence, with a rope (and maybe a basket).
Seriously, why do we put up with his price gouging? If they are worried about rampant drunken-ness, they could check bags as they do and ensure not too much alcohol is going in. But they are not really worried about his, they want everyone to get rampantly drunk at $7 a go.
$7 VB’s plus the cost of a parking ticket for parking out on the road verge. Nice day at the cricket spoilt by a parking fine. Come on, Its just one day out of the year Stanhope!
Ripping off captive audiences (eg sporting events, theme parks, concerts, etc) is a very Australian thing to do. It’s part of the reason why Australia is now being considered more and more an ‘expensive’ country.

What’s Your opinion?
$7 for a VB at the PMs XI
Would be interested to know if they are actually using taps and giving you 425ml, or just dumping 375ml cans into 425ml plastic cups.

did we lose yet?
ahhh, the strange parallel universe of pricing that exists in sporting venues (or indeed anywhere with a captive audience).

I’m not a beer snob by any means, but paying any amount of money for VB is just something I would only do in an emergency.
$4 for soft drink. $3 for water? Could get pricey if you’re taking the family out.
At least they have full strength at Manuka, a lot of other cricket grounds only sell mid strength for the same price.
Cider it is then!
five bucks for a pie! whats it made of wagyu ?

Dont drink………..Its also for 425ml, not 375ml so you are getting more. Why do people have to get pissed at these events?
Waiting For Godot said :
Or take it with you like I do.
How about water for $3.00?
It’s not a stubbie…it’s 425ml…if that’s your poison, suck it up and pay!
That’s ridiculous. I wouldn’t touch that swill for less than $15.
Sick and wrong.
