New Study Ranks Phillies Top Ten Most Expensive MLB Concessions
For many families, going to a Major League Baseball game was the most inexpensive option for sports fans in many cities around the United States. But over the last 20 years, even attending a Professional Baseball game has become an expensive decision for numerous people.
Since opening in 2004, Citizens Bank Park has been a popular destination for Baseball fans. The Phillies have been in the Top Ten in MLB Attendance 11 times over the last 20 years, despite the rise of ticket, parking, and concession prices.
How Expensive Are Concessions At Phillies Games?
The website 24/7 Wall Street gathered data on the cost of concessions at each Major League Baseball Stadium. They used this information to rank the Most Expensive Stadium Concessions in MLB based on the cost of Hot Dogs, Sodas, and Beers.
According to the research by 24/7 Wall Street ranked Citizens Bank Park as one of the ten most expensive concessions in Baseball. The Cost of Four Hot Dogs sold at a Phillies game is $20.00, which is more expensive than all but seven MLB Stadiums.
