Response to Fenway Park Lowers Beer Prices for Fans

http://hbannon90.blogspot.com/

Have the high prices at big events ever kept you from purchasing beer? Would you be more apt to buy them now that the price has gone down?

I think in any public place the prices for any type of alcohol are too high. And yes, this has stopped me from purchasing any type of alcohol even from bars. Its so much cheaper to just watch the game at your own place, and buy your own beer. Even at weddings! The drinks are so expensive! and not even that great! I wish there were ways to make it cheaper for ourselves. But then it would suck for the vendors, because that's where they make the most money and business.
