I believe this is the forum to post the following. Let’s hope [THAT THIS](http://www.ajc.com/news/sports/football/falcons-lower-food-prices-make-national-news/nrN9J/) becomes a trend. ---

Dan Snyder will never go for it. ---

Too bad you have [to pay $10,000 just for a license to a seat at one of the games at that stadium](http://www.cbs46.com/story/27806883/are-personal-seat-licenses-for-new-falcons-stadium-worth-the-investment). Note: that is just a license to buy tickets for the seat, not the tickets themselves. Low hot dog prices are just trying to win back some goodwill that was destroyed over the seat licensing scheme. ---

First off, hilarious Username/topic convo Second off, the pricing isn’t only for the PSL owners, it’s for everyone. Although you are totally right that this is an attempt to get people to come to the games, but I can justify a high ticket price way more if I know I’m only spending 10 bucks on food and can still be full ---

Note: that is just a license to buy tickets for the seat, not the tickets themselves. Only if you going to buy season tickets for the Falcons is that an issue. Not if you are buying single game tickets, or getting season tickets (like me) or single game tickets for Atlanta United FC. ---

I remember it was you could bring a whole family of 5 or so and for 35 or so it was all the hot dogs nachos and such you could eat … Apparently, yes, but it may be limited to groups of 20 or more. I remember a Sports Illustrated writer once took Joey Chestnut to a game in the All You Can Eat section - the only problem was, Chestnut had just been in an eating contest the night before. ---

Goes without saying, but there oughta be a law against price gouging anywhere there are limited food resources, like airports, amusement parks, zoos, etc. especially in places you’re not allowed to bring outside food in. People gotta eat. ---

People gotta eat. In fairness, you do not HAVE to eat at the airport, amusement park, zoo, or stadium. You could eat before and after for reasonable amounts, which is exactly what I did/do when going to those places. ---
