Unbelievable. It's about like the $5 you pay for 1 bottle water at Carolina baseball game.

That’s the one reason I love the Masters. Someone forgot to tell the concessions guys it’s not 1970 anymore.
Now merchandise on the other hand…

Hell No, I didn't. I think it was Justin Thomas tweeting about the crazy concession prices at this Tournament
Southern Hills is a place where smuggling should be looked upon with a blind eye. Easy to smuggle in the beer, but that cooler of ice is just too noticeable.
I don’t think the merchandise is that bad considering you can only buy it there. Sure it’s more expensive than a normal hat.
The PGA is trying to make back the settlement money they had to pay Trump for breaking their 2014 contract to play at the Trump National. Hope the woke PGA goes broke.
I’ve never really understood the obsession of throwing down tons of money to watch other people play golf. I’d like to walk the Masters one time before I die but more for the history of it than actually being entertained by golf. I know that may be a cold take here but it’s my 2 cents.
As an avid golfer I can comprehend just how difficult it is to do what they do. I enjoy watching good golf. To me seeing it in person makes it even more so. Something about being there and hearing the roars and excitement. However I will agree that tv gives you the best perspective.
Even though it looks easy it only took me once to know I suck at it. I can certainly appreciate the skill set.
It’s also kind of a free for all. Camp out at one hole all day or try to follow someone but it’s hard to get a good view.
The first time I went to Augusta, mid 70's, I stood next to a player's caddie. My cousin told me to look at the irons in the bag. Each one had a worn off area, no bigger than a dime, in the sweet spot.
That's where the pro's hit it everytime. I love seeing them play in person.

I've been to the Masters on tournament days about 10-12 times. My wife has been probably 20-25 times. It's very enjoyable.
I can't say I know I'd enjoy just going to any tournament out there but if you know a bit about the golfers, it's more fun in person than you'd expect (unless you just hate golf).
Last year at KIawah, 2 hamburgers, 1 hot dog, two Gatorades and a water cost me $68.00 plus tip which was donated to charity.
Sounds like you were charitable enough prior to the tip.
