Things I Could Buy For The Price of One Miller Lite at Yankee Stadium
- Two Happy Meals from McDonalds
- The Ingredients for a Twelve-Egg Omelet
- A Blowjob from a Whore in Montreal (tip not included)
- A Full Pitcher of Beer at Cheapshots
- Five Rides on the New York City Subway (that are more enjoyable than standing in line at the concession stands waiting for a beer)
- Two 16-ounce beers at Angels Stadium (tip included)
- A Six-Pack of Heineken from a Bodega in Any Neighborhood in New York City
- Four six-inch subs from Subway (with coupon included in yesterday’s stadium giveaway, the 2008 New York Yankees Calendar presented by Subway)
- Two rides on one of the fastest roller coasters in the world
- A 5-euro note
- A Twelve-Pack of Miller Lite from a Bodega in Any Neighborhood in New York City
- Two blowjobs from a Whore in Bangkok (tip included, medical treatment not included)
- 2 Tickets in Section 402 to the Friday, May 23rd New York Mets - Colorado Rockies Game (ticket processing fees included)
(The cost of a 16-ounce draft Miller Lite at Yankee Stadium this year is $9.50. I estimate that 32% of that goes directly into Alex Rodriguez’s pocket. The remaining 68% should be shoved up Steinbrenner’s ass.)

Ben says:You can get a 20 oz. Miller Lite at the Carl’s Cheesesteak stand for $8.75, cheesesteak optional, although how could you possibly say no after staring at them for five minutes… oh, wait, I see what they’re doing.

metsgrrl says:it was funny until the bangkok line. while possibly true, it just made the whole piece mean and not worth linking to.

nancypearlwannabe says:Last year at Fenway a guy offered me $50 for the last two beers I ordered before they stopped serving. I was too drunk to say yes. Budweiser never tasted so good.

Ben K. says:You know, Chris, no one at Yankee Stadium is forcing you to buy beer. They may force you to stand up during God Bless America, but the beer purchase, that’s your choice.

Todd says:Just don’t get drunk (and high) before a game in an effort to save money. You’ll end up shirtless in the women’s bathroom.
True story.

Chris says:Ben K.: Yes, you’re right. And that’s why I didn’t have a beer there. But eating a hot dog without a beer at a baseball game goes against everything I stand for!

JJ says:That’s why you have to load up a either Billy’s or Stan’s across the street…

Cock D says:What’s Billy’s at these days? I seem to remember $5/ 12 oz bud about 10 years ago.
Really should be loading up in the parking lot.

mona says:freaking love this. was thinking along these lines on saturday at the game. my friend and i decided to stay at least an hour in throwing $6 beers back at stan’s to avoid the $10 dollar tab for A beer.

Chicopea says:$4.00 = one lychee martini at Verlaine’s for happy hour (oh yes, I’ve seen as many guys drink this as girls, you know who you are)
to wash it down:
$5 = One Cubano, across the street from Verlaine’s. El Castillo de Jagua. hands down one of the best cubanos in the city
extra credit:
$.41 = one stamp at the post office
Total = $9.41
balance of 9 cents = inflation

Timguvnor says:Erm, hello, why would you want to drink miller anyway, for gawd’s sake?

Cock D says:Timguvnor - if the other choice is Jacob Best, I would want to drink Miller.
