When we arrived at the Rose Garden, Johnny got us settled in our seats and then he went to buy us sodas. He returned carrying two tournament commemorative 32 ounce cups. These two drinks were $9.00 each.....yes! I said $9.00. Being the Math and business whizz that Johnny is, he realized that the 20 ounce paper cup going at $5.75 was not the best deal. The commemorative cup was refillable for $3.00. The paper cups were not refillable. Ta-Duh! We did get the most for our money with the $9.00 drink. We washed our cups at home after the first day's games and conscientiously brought the cups back with us to the Saturday games. We refilled them twice again and definitely saved money in the long run. Oh how they gouge the prices at sporting events.......but being with John, Johnny and Brittney-----PRICELESS!

$9 for soda...outrageous! However, I know you well enough to know that you got every penny worth of your refillable cup!
You should have snuck in some drinks in your purse ;)
