have you seen the video of the beer cup size difference at your stadium, someone took the big cup and little cup and showed that the venders at your stadium are ripping the fans off.

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBBGx1vLMtc]SEAHAWK FANS BEING RIPPED OFF!! -- 2 Different cup sizes, same amount of beer! - YouTube[/ame]

check the vid and don't waste your money buying the supposedly bigger beer.

I just saw it today on facebook. Im sure it isn't just your stadium but I figured I would share with you guys since you have a home game tomorrow and if some of you didn't already know about it then you do now and don't get ripped off!!!!

Man i remember when they used to have the large Rainier cans for a buck and 50 cents or the two dollar beer nights that ended when someone lit off fireworks and it caught part of the turf on fire.

Thing is the vendors pay big money to be there and it seem's to me every stadium i have been to they really stick it to yah on stuff,but the choices are a ton more today which is a good thing,i mean back in the day it was hotdogs and pretzels and ice cream,today there is pizza,sushi etc.

It's been known for couple years. People still spend though mainly because if you think about the cost of the tickets to be at a Seahawks game... People for some reason don't really mind being ripped off for the beer

I happened to know this because someone posted that video on the old ESPN.com Blazers board. Still, I thank you for letting everybody know about this, Jarrod.

That is either from last year or the year before (I forget which). Whichever it was, they finished the rest of the year only serving the "larger" cup at the "smaller" cup price. Their claim was that both cups were actually sized at the "larger" cup size.
I am pretty certain that they don't have the issue anymore; either they only have one size, or the small size is actually smaller. I have season tickets, but I don't really pay attention to the beer cups that I buy (or could buy, if there is still two sizes).

I don't like beer, so this had no impact on me whatsoever, but for the people that do like beer it had to really suck to find out they were paying two different prices for the same amount of beer. At this point, though, you almost have to expect that you're getting ripped off in some way at these games/other events, whether it's on beer, food, merchandise, parking or tickets. These teams/venues are gonna keep ripping people off for as long as they can get away with it and they'll keep getting away with it as long as people are willing to pay whatever they have to to get this stuff.

Yep saw this a couple years ago…. That is pretty deceptive and something allot of stadiums have probably been doing … Pretty tricky
