I'm sure it's like this at most stadiums, just found this video interesting. The difference in amount of beer for $1.25 is astounding. Gotta love NFL stadium prices.

Kind of an old video that no longer applies, but yes they did do that.

Yes, this was several years ago.

In response to the video going viral, the stadium was nice enough to sell larges for medium prices for a game :L. Lol, assholes.

Either:

Get absolutely blasted on the way (NO ONE at Qualcomm standing in line to get in has less than a case in their hand), or
Stay home

No way in hell am I paying $13.25 for a fuckin plastic cup of beer.

This is what I've always done at Hawks games. Half the fun is tailgating in the Seattle alleys anyway, so show up at 7am, take a little nap or make breakfast, then party and drink for a few hours, saving yourself $50 on shit beer in the stadium. Who wants to stand in those lines anyway and miss football for $10 Bud Lights?!

There are good beers at the CLINK but they even cost more money! I'm with the "pre-drinking" crowd. I do my drinking before the game and just buy one drink at half-time. I'm sure most of the Seahawks faithful know this but a good place to drink early is at Safeco Field. They open up the lower outfield and sell the beer at reasonable prices! They also have a bunch of TV's that broadcast all the morning games.

There may be better beers than just Bud Light and Shock Top, but good beer I haven't seen. I usually bring a couple bombers, a few smaller bottles or cans, and a growler of something fresh with me. Barrel aged barleywines, imperial stouts, Imperial IPAs. They may be expensive, but they're damn good on cold Seattle Sundays.
