Football fans are set to be hit in the pocket at Super Bowl LIV, with a salad costing an eye-watering £80 and a single beer priced at £13. The 59th NFL finale, which is a rematch of the game two years ago between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles, will take place on Sunday.
The current champions are on the brink of making league history by securing three consecutive titles, but they’ll have to defeat their old rivals to do so. The much-anticipated clash is being held at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana, which has a capacity of over 76,000.
On top of the costly tickets that could set fans back thousands of pounds, the prices for refreshments at the lavish stadium are nothing short of astronomical. The Superdome, home to the New Orleans Saints, is one of the NFL stadiums with the most expensive concession stands, with a hot dog and beer combo costing fans £15.33.
A large domestic beer on the Superdome concourse will cost £13, while those opting for a premium cocktail like a Bayou Strawberry Daiquiri or a Frozen Irish Coffee will have to fork out an even heftier £15.33. Fans looking to quench their thirst will find themselves nearly £16.15 poorer after buying a beer.
However, there’s some respite with slightly cheaper food options available, with wings and hotdogs priced at just £3.23, while a slice of pizza will set you back £10.50, reports The Mirror US.
The menu prices are sky-high, with a Caprese Crab Salad costing an eye-watering £80.74, a basket of Garden Fresh Crudites priced at a steep £64.59, and dirty rice – a Louisiana Creole dish made with white rice and small pieces of pork, beef or chicken – setting you back a hefty £60.55. While these dishes and prices are set for the regular season, there will be upgrades to the menu for fans during the game.
Other items such as The Big Easy big game banh mi, Lobster karaage sandwich, Surf n’ turf po’ boy, Alligator sausage po’ boy are also on the menu.
