I'm willing to bet Aramark took $40-45 of each of that $50/head.



That boggles the mind.

Convention pricing is an incredible racket. Just a few instances from my time dealing with them (food vendors, etc) in the past:

- TV rental at $195/day
- Electrician for the center is required to install and inspect any setup with electricity. This includes plugging in devices to an extension cord: $110/hr with a 1hr minimum
- Non-vendor food delivery and allowance charge. Had king cakes shipped to a venue. $5 per package to accept the item at the venue and $7 per item that isn't on the vendor specific food list. We had 100 king cakes.
