Wrigley's INSANE Prices!!! Is A $20 Pulled Pork Sandwich Worth It?
We recently went on a little mission at Wrigley Field and the concept was simple, find the best food in the stadium.
Easier said then done.
For starters a lot of the best food is sold EXCLUSIVELY in the bleachers. We did not know that. We may or may not have sweet talked our way back there. We may or may not have also gotten kicked out by an old crotchty fun killer who saw a couple of idiots with cameras and decided to check their tickets. Leave to Chicago’s north side to make sure all the best of something was segregated away.
(by the way I’m fully aware we were the ones in the wrong. We didn’t have a ticket, we shouldn’t have been there, and the nice old man was just doing his job. I’m just having fun typing away at my laptop with my trusted writing bong sitting next me. So if you could give me a break on any hate, it’d much appreciated)
Anywho, ah yes, the food! We went to Lillie’s Q Southern BBQ to try their Pulled Pork Sandwich for $20.
For starters, what’s up with that price! I know it’s ballpark prices but my god people. How’s a blue collar dad to afford taking his kid to the game now-a-days? Alright let me slow down. I am buying a premiere item here. I guess I’m just typing from a place of already haven eaten this bummer of a sandwich so I guess you’re just getting some preemptive context clues.
Where did they start going wrong. We covered the price. Oh yeah, how about that famous sauce! They tried to not give me any!? Can you believe that? I mean the sauce is a pretty big part of the Pulled Pork sandwich in my book so when this lady handed me that dry sandwich I was almost at a loss for words. But luckily I wasn’t, I caught my breath and asked for some sauce (asking for things is kryptonite to Irish Catholic Midwesterner’s).
So I got my sauce, I sit down, and go for my first bite and believe it or not this $20 sandwich (no sides) was damn near cold!
needless to say I was bummed. I was sad. I was broke. And I was hungry.
