    and these, for the most part, are "small" beers...

    Not sure where they got their data, but it's definitely wrong. Nats Park has $8 beers, and I don't see it anywhere on the list. Camden Yards is definitely cheap by comparison, and they have a selection of actually craft brews.

    No comment on the beers, but I hate websites that put a top ten list on eleven pages. I don't want to click through all those pages to see an itty bitty paragraph on each one just to generate more ad revenue and clicks to your site.

    Hell Oakland cant get fans to pay $12 for a seat, much less a beer. Am I the only one drinking a 6er in the parking lot before the game?

    Hey Chris, the Nats tied for 8th, they just lumped them with the White Sox and the Rangers-

    8. Tie: Chicago White Sox/Texas Rangers/Washington Nationals/
    Price of a small draft beer: $6.50

    Gotcha, I missed that. That sounds right for a "small" draft from one of the restaurants. The Miller Lite in the seats (which I guess is larger) is always $8. Highway robbery!

    That said, we are not regretting becoming season ticker holders this year.

    Not on the list but I wont buy beer at the stadium anyways. The pyramid brewery is about 100 yards from the main entrance of Safeco Field so we just go a few hours early and pound back a couple pitchers and walk across the street and sit in the nosebleed section for dirt cheap. One of my favorite and fairly inexpensive ways to spend a sunny summer afternoon.

    Okay...this might piss some of you off but I say raise away! Hopefully to a point where it will be to expensive to buy. I really don't like the fact Beer is sold at sporting events. Most people can be responsible but for some reason there's always that drunk loud mouth, ignorant jackass sitting near you. I don't mind sitting next to responsible people but I really hate these Ass-hats that ruin it for the rest of us.

    A lot of those guys are out in the parking lot drinking their own beer before the game for 8 hours. It's bad enough everything is so inflated at the games anyway that I shouldn't have to pay the 12 pack price for one freaking beer. If they want to cut down on the drunkenness at the games there are better ways of doing it then gouging customers.
    Drinking doesn't keep me from working, just being productive.
