Anyone ever sit in the White Sox Diamond suites?

Do these seats fall into the category where you get free food/alcohol?

When somebody is selling these, am I right in assuming that each suite has an allowed number in, and the seller is putting up a portion of them, meaning I'd be sharing the suite with a bunch of others?

Any other luxeries with this - how do they compare to the Jim Beam club (or the new name for that)? Worth it?

What time can you arrive to start drinking?

You pay for everything you drink and eat. You can arrive at 5:30 for night games and you can order ahead of time, or while you are there. When i say "Order" not even sure you can order 1 hot dog or 1 beer, but you order a 6 pack or cans or bottle and a tray of hot dogs, usually well before the game and they have it delivered to the suite around 6 PM.

The only a la carte items is the desert cart, which comes by the suite, everyone picks what they want and you, as the host gets the bill.

BD, must be a big shooter! the food and drink bill alone for an outing is $$$$$

I mean if you are bringing/inviting 8-10 people, you have to get a dozen dogs, some chips, beers and pop at the very minimum, which I would say is running you $250+, then if you don't want to be viewed as the bad host, maybe some chicken wings? Burgers? Salad? $600+ and the cost of the tickets and parking.

Do any of the suites in Chicago pro sports give you free food, or do they all operate on the assumption that since you're ballin' enough to afford the suites in teh first place that another $500-1000 on food and beer is no big thing, especially if you're trying to "impress that client" or whatever you're doing.

They all charge for food. This is why the Harris Suites at the UC are a decent deal on a per game basis.

The ticket is about $400 a game. You can buy 2 or 4 of them and you get a lounge like setup. But for $400 you get all food and drink included.

However, you need to pay for all the Bulls and Hawks game for the season. So about $30G per seat per season.
