Sports personality and TikTok user Jesse Pollock expressed disbelief in a video over the price of food while attending the Toronto Blue Jays home game against the New York Yankees.
Pollock filmed himself going to a few different vendors inside the Rogers Centre (aka Skydome), calling the prices “outrageous.”
A hot dog and a “souvenir draught” beer cost over $30, as does the chicken tenders combo with a beer.

A draught beer by itself costs $18. A fountain drink? $11.
“Come on!” Pollock shouts.
The Blue Jays started their first home stand last week where fans got to see $400 million worth of upgrades to the stadium, mostly in terms of seating.
Users responded to Pollock’s video with mixed comments.
“To be fair, tickets are like $25 bucks,” said one user, which is true for the cheaper seats at the stadium.
“It’s a cheaper drive to Detroit to watch a jays game,” another said.
“Can you imagine taking your family there?” another user responded.
