There are tons of vendors who are legendary – I hope they all make it over. I know the vendor you’re talking about, there’s also Roderick – he sells beer and announces the lineups. He was once in the middle of announcing the lineups when someone asked for help finding their seats – he told her to go away. Then there’s this other beer vendor who growls at people – no joke. There’s a lady who sells water and cracker jacks who’s ridiculously loud – one time I heard her and she was literally in left field; I was behind home plate.

I could go on and on – hopefully all the characters make it across the street – from the vendors to security to fans!

-They are offering a $3 hot dog, a $3 soft drink and a $6 beer.
-Traditional Stadium fare, such as hot dogs, peanuts, popcorn, sausages and Cracker Jack, remain the same price as last season.

So in the first it says hotdogs will be $3, but in the next little part it says they will remain the same price as last season. Are there two different types of hot dogs floating around the stadium or is the $3 one pig-in-a-blanket sized?

A $6 watered-down beer is value? We used to make a pilgrimage from DC to NYC every summer to catch a game at the Stadium, but one game cost more than the MLB package on DirecTV. Camden Yards is cheaper (and they don’t force you to stay in your seat to listen to God Bless America).

I will believe $6 beers when I see them. Especially considering last year it was $9.50 to get a bud light in a paper cup. Maybe this reduction in beer cost is the small consolation for me never seeing a game at field level again. Thanks for the memories old stadium. Is anyone else concerned about how far the upper dack in the new stadium is from the field? The best thing about the old stadium is that you had 55,000 people right on top of the game because the upper deck was so close to the field. No more good cheap seats. Maybe I will be forced to spend my time wandering the promenade and at the “beer garden” to ease my bitter disappointment.

Are we going to the ballpark to eat or to watch a game? WTF enough junk food in there for people to get stuff themselves and get fatter. I just hope a fat guy is not sitting next to me taking up part of my seat too.
