Miller Park Sells Food?

The Journal Sentinel rolled out this year's prices for some key Miller Park concessions, including price hikes as appropriate. A few comments:

1. Beer prices continue to rise. The 24-oz beer cup still looks like the best "deal" (if you consider that a deal), but a more fiscally conservative approach is to have 6-12 beers in the parking lot before the game. [Editor's note: Chuckie Hacks doesn't promote excessive alcohol consumption at Miller Park. We do, however, condone it. There's a difference - go look it up.]

2. The fry cup is always a fan favorite, especially when the fries come in the mini plastic helmet. Fun game - find your drunkest friend, and tell him to put your fry cup helmet on his head when you finish your fries. Don't, however, tell him that there's still leftover ketchup or nacho cheese in the helmet. That's just good times. Also works with the ice cream sundae in a helmet, with the added advantage being that chocolate sauce and ice cream are really sticky.

3. Glad to see that the Polish and Italians are remaining at $4. That's my go-to meal at the park if I buy any food.

4. Who needs a 32 oz. soda? Of course, I am reminded that our section watched a particularly fat person (potentially disabled due to obesity) pound an entire TWO LITER BOTTLE OF SODA (not diet) and a large bag of potato chips at a game last year. How he got either item into the game, I don't know. And yes, he was pulling directly off the bottle - no messing around with a cup with this guy...
