7.50 Euro for a Hot Dog in the AVIVA

You weren't forced to buy it?

Even during the recession stadium prices were always high. There are numerous food options, ranging from shops like Spar, to fast food, to pubs, to chip vans within 20 minutes walk of the Aviva. In America a beer in a stadium will cost you around $13.

Hoping for a recession which will severely impact many, based on the prices of a hot dog in the Aviva, is shameful.

You are paying for the tiger meat in the sausage

It's a rip off, but if no one bought them they might lower their prices. I would never buy food at matches, concerts etc. I always bring enough from home that will keep me going for the length of time that I am there.

funny that i do too. youve got lovely curtains fyi

oh i know ya, the father says it just isnt the same without you. you never bring enough vaseline though apparently

7.50 hotdogs is just one part of the John Delaney legacy tax

Of course it was pricey it's the Aviva ffs everyone knows stadiums serve overpriced crap food. No reason why you couldn't eat before or after the game. Your in the stadium what 2 hours or so beginning to end you can survive.

It does annoy me in the Aviva that they don't serve proper Coke anymore only Diet Coke and Zero and taking the bottle caps off is a loada bs too. I never saw the logic to that as you could just throw the whole bottle.

I was at a game in Italy a while back and they don't serve hot food at stadiums there only minerals and crisps.

Mine prefers the €7.50

Paid 9 euro for a glass of Pinot Grigio in my local pub at the weekend, first time there since pre-covid, family event. Measure in the glass was about half what I'd pour at home too. Guinness at 5.80 was ok.

That's €2737.50 a year. That's a lot to be spending on hot dogs for anyone, let alone the wife.

That's only part off the reason for taking the lid off its to stop people from falling by standing on a sealed bottle.

I've been hit on the head twice by full 500ml bottles thrown though the air.

First time was at Glasonbury in 1999. Saw something way up in the sky, and I thought "That's coming straight for me". And next thing it hit me square in the face.

Next time was in 2018, I was walking on my own in Dublin, crossing the road at St. Andrew's Street/Suffolk Street at about 1 in the morning. There was no-one else about at all. Next thing I felt a thump on the back of my head, and a full 500ml bottle of Fanta fell to the ground. Looked around, there was literally no-one to be seen. No, I did not drink the magical sky Fanta.

Anyway, from experience, it's not that bad.
