Without a doubt, the NASCAR Cup Series is one of the most thrilling competitions in the country. With the races taking place on Sundays, the tracks are more often than not flooded with fans. Of course, people do fancy watching from home but the romance of a live experience is incomparable. Interestingly, depending on the venue, an average ticket can cost anywhere between $30 to $120 per person.

Add to it the cost of travel, hotels, food, etc., it can get heavy on the pocket. So it’s no surprise that fans were left fuming in this matter when details of the 2023 Masters Tournament at Augusta National Golf Club were disclosed.

Fans slam NASCAR for obscene pricing following the disclosure of the Augusta National Golf Club details

For almost nine decades, Augusta National Golf Club has played host to the annual Masters Tournament. The 2023 Masters kick-started this week and the concession menu was recently revealed. Interestingly, the most expensive item on the menu was white wine, priced at $6.

It is quite cheap considering how the prices of eatables and beverages are at venues of some other elite sports. For reference, a bottle of water at the 2023 Super Bowl cost more than any item present on the concession menu. In fact, it is something that infuriated NASCAR fans, given how prices have been at the races this season.

They were quick to highlight how the costs of food items and beverages have been quite unreasonable this season.

Some of them pointed to the outrageous prices at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

It is worth noting that NASCAR allows fans to bring in their own food and beverages. Having said that, it still doesn’t help how inflation has affected the sport.
