Wow did we both ever make for an ugly game. Not sure what happened but my concession sales were WAY down as well. Good game none the less, you had us worried for awhile!

Good game to you guys, too. Definitely don't hate losing to a great team like yours. I'm just really frustrating how the game essentially ended, though. lol I'd rather have turned the ball over on downs or thrown an INT somewhere, as opposed to that.

Been there before as well! Are other people having completely messed up concessions this year? I have over 15K more seats this year with twice the fan support and am selling less tickets in a win this year than a blowout loss last year? Are the GLB SI Fans in a recession as well?

I give up trying to figure out why we kicked there. It just makes me want to beat my head against a wall too much. As far as concessions go... Well, I haven't been making less, but after adding around 15k seats for us too, we're selling basically the same as last year... even with the additional seating... So, yeah. lol It does sound kinda like a recession, I guess. I had to raise prices just to try and get a little extra out of the extra seating.

About the same mass. Last season with poor support and less seats we were getting around 750K! I wish there was a way to show some consistency in this crap!

I've really never noticed a lot of correlation between Fan Support and concessions, oddly. Which seems rather odd.

That's weird. You have a bigger stadium, our prices are set the same, but somehow we are getting consistently just over 1.1 million in concessions. Maybe the secret is to lose a few games, so they buy more beer to drown out their sorrows?

Fan support doesn't have anything to do with concession sales. Fan support only affects ticket sales / ticket prices. Once they're at the game, the score affects concession sales. Usually a blowout game will have higher sales then a very close game. I guess they have more time to go get their snacks and party, but in a close game they must be glued to their seats.

As Plankton said, we are averaging about 1.1 million in concession sales per game in close games (about $19.81 per seat).
