I think folks are overestimating the value in this all-you-can-drink package they'll be selling at Preakness this year. Granted, if MJC can get another 30k or so to pack into the field than they did last year when attendance was miserable and ZZ Top played to crickets, they'll make out well on gate alone, but the new policy sells a mug for $20 and lets you fill it up as many times as you'd like while last year beers were a scant $2. I'd say the average Preakness goer consumes roughly ten beers during their time at the track this Saturday, so really the only difference this year is that more folks are going to go because it's an all-you-can-drink event and not a la carte.
That rambled, but hopefully, someone understands what I'm trying to say.
