New food items at Camden Yards

[Going Underground]

Have not posted this in a few years.

More additions around the ballpark: The Orioles are introducing new menu items at existing locations. Crab Dip Pretzel ($16) -- Soft-baked pretzel with crab dip, Monterey Jack cheese and Old Bay seasoning. Available at the B&O Market along Eutaw Street.

Haha! Sixteen bucks for a pretzel? I’ll bet there’s loads of crab, though!

$16 for this? I'll continue my tradition of eating before or after the game if I make it to OPACY this year.

At least it’s not the $151 burger being sold at Braves games this year.

There's lobster tail on that $151 burger.  Wagyu beef.  Truffle aioli.  HOLD ME BACK.

BTW, everyone is so giddy about Jimmys being there.  I have yet to eat at the restaurant but I have eaten off of the food truck and the crab cake was terrible.

I think that the biggest change to the menu at OPACY this year is that they're allowing you to bring your own food and drink in again.  If you don't want to eat obscenely priced stadium food, buy a $1 hot dog, a $2 bag of peanuts, and a $1 soda outside and bring it in.

Going that route plus a cheap/Stubhub ticket is almost certainly cheaper than going to your local movie theater and buying the bushel of popcorn and a gallon soda deal.

I'm thinking of going to Wednesday night's [likely Burnes vs Means] game vs Milwaukee.

Just for fun, not because I can't afford it or am super cheap, I think I might try to make it a minimal cost night.   For the first week excluding Opening Day they have that 1992 ticket price deal they've been advertising that include $4 Eutaw Street bleachers.   And $1.75 hot dogs.

So I might so if I can treat myself to a really cheap night at the park:

• Light rail -- is it $3.50 or $3.75 round trip, can't remember for sure?   I'm not quite there for the senior discount, but a few years away!
• A Eutaw St bleacher seat for $4
• 2 hot dogs for $3.50
• And I'll bring a bottle of pure leaf unsweetened iced tea, $1.99 at my local grocery.   

Might be fun to watch last year's Cy Young winner battle the Orioles' ace and spend less than $14 doing it.

But at the movies, you don't know how the story ends.

With the Orioles you're never quite sure if they're going to lose 15-0, 8-2, or 4-3.

Nice.  For me I'd be adding 180 miles of round trip gas, so something like $35.  But a ballgame at Camden Yards for $50 still isn't bad.  And I'd have to bring the kids and the wife and they'd be far less likely to play along with the cheap game thing.

My kids are 15 and 13, although they could probably pass for 12 and 10.  Still doesn't help even if I was dishonest.

I absolutely believe that an Orioles game is the best value for your entertainment dollar.  You can still get in for a reasonable price and spend next to nothing on food if you mostly bring your own.  Light rail or metro makes it even cheaper.
