Sheesh, what's the harm? You get it once just to try it out, probably not something you get all the time.

I dont think anyone said there's any harm. It doesnt look posionous. But i dont know anyone who wouldnt laugh off that price if someone actually tried to sell that to them.

It must look pretty funny eating an 18 inch corndog.

Is one person going to eat all that though? It comes with fries and with all the cheese and peppers, that could fill 2-3 people.

Biggest ripoff ever. I had a guy in the concession business tell me a footlong corndog costs 16c to make. He was telling me about a RN that quit her job to sell corndogs and lemonade in Canton, TX and made more money 4 days a month than she did as a nurse.

Sodas are also the biggest ripoff ever, too. You buy a big bag of syrup and the carbonated water mixes with the syrup in the drink machine. Most of it is carbonated water. Just a bit of the soda is syrup.

So each cup only costs maybe about 5 cents of syrup.

And you are charged $2.00 for that soda.

It's almost all profit.

Snoball stands have an insane profit margin

I think this appeals more to LSU fans than diamondback fans

That doesn't mean it's a rip off. Who wants to make their own soda?

If they would put chili, cheese, japs, and spicy mustard on the outside as well to go along with whats on the inside, that may very well be the mecca of all fried ballpark goodness
