Talk about unbounded shameless greed! First charge $4 for water down Bud Light than up the price for $7 for a taller skinnier cup holding the same amount of liquid to trick the consumer they are getting more beverage when there really not. These sports stadiums make a killing on concessions like movie theaters and there is no need to cheat anyone on paying more for the same amount of beer of the so called 'small' size cup.

A handful of Idaho hockey fans sued a Boise arena on Tuesday, saying they were duped into thinking a $7 beer contains more brew than a $4 beer.
The lawsuit says CenturyLink Arena, home of the Idaho Steelheads hockey team, defrauded customers by charging $3 more for a tall, narrow cup advertised as a "large" that actually holds the same amount of beer as the shorter, wider cup described as a "small."
Arena spokesman Mike Campbell said he hadn't yet seen the lawsuit and can't comment.
Quote:
The lawsuit came just two days after another hockey fan posted a video on YouTube of what the fan said was a beer purchased at CenturyLink Arena on March 8. That video shows a patron holding a large cup of beer and pouring it into an empty small cup. In both cups, the beer reaches nearly to the brim.
