$18 for a beer. One can of beer, not a case of 24 cans or a case of 12 cans but for a single can of domestic beer.

They'd make a lot more money if the beer was free, but taking a leak was $18.00!

if the fans don't buy the beer at that price, then they will have to lower the price.
Thought I read that was for a 24oz beer, so that would be $9 per, which is not far off from stadium prices. Don’t know if the PGA sets prices and is trying to discourage drinking (and thus rowdy fans) or if the vendor is just making a high margin.
More importantly, this post reminded to pick up a ticket for the LPGA tourney in Pinehurst in a few weeks.
They are tall boys, and the Aquafina at $6 a bottle is a bigger rip off.
I wonder if you are allowed to carry your own water bottle. $6 is definitely a rip off, especially as hot as it can get in Oklahoma.
You can bring in one water. Yep beer is expensive and not even good beer. Water at 6 is ridiculous, good news is tomorrow high is supposed to be 71 so they better have coffee available!

You mean like at the Dumpster Open? Haven't see any coverage of that in recent years.
I'm going to the Open next month. Guess I'll plan to get wasted in the parking lot and maintain my buzz all day. Never been to a PGA event before so I'm practicing my cheers. After every drive it's, "Get in the hole!"
Then when it's kinda quiet I yell, "Baba Ganoush." Any others?
I think that every time I go to any sporting event or how much more money they would make if they just charged a reasonable price. That's way everyone gets drunk before they go in!
This topic is getting a lot of negative attention. Hope it's a black eye for the PGAT for not being in touch with reality.

Who needs drunken idiots in crowds? Not like people will throw beer cups, oh wait…
Now the water is a different story.
The $18 is for a 24oz can, so $9 a beer. Still high, but not out of of line with the other sporting events I atttend. $9 at Bluejackets games, same at Columbus Crew games and craft beer is $12 in a 12 ounce cup. I attended the Wells Fargo Championship two weeks ago, it was $9 a beer and $12 for wine. All these events I attend they sell a bunch of beer so I doubt they lower the prices anytime soon.
What we cannot obtain from intelligence, we can learn from experience.
You can yell "Fried chicken at Sergio"
Who cares about the price of beer. They should zero the scores for the final day for the drama.
I went final round of 07. Drank 13 bottles of water and never went to the restroom. That’s how hot it was. Sorry off topic
A buddy claims he going to do a shot every time he hears "Tiger", I told him by Thursday at noon he would pass out for the weekend...
I was there the whole week entertaining customers, it felt like I walked about a gazallion miles in that heat! Thank God we had trophy club passes so we could get in the AC tents on the course!
