The Masters prides itself on being more than a golf tournament. It’s a time capsule back to a different era on grounds that feel like they exist in a different universe entirely.
Each blade of grass is expertly trimmed. Every sidewalk meticulously cleaned of debris. The trees tower over the people on whom they cast shade but no leaves ever seem to fall.
And the concession stands serve America’s cheapest food anywhere outside of minor league baseball’s dollar hot dog nights. Behold, the spot where you can get a couple sandwiches, soda and dessert for less than $10.
The most expensive thing on the Masters menu is a $6 beer or wine — including the specially brewed “Crows Nest” wheat ale that’s only available during tournament week. Chicken, pork barbeque and club sandwiches are only $3 each. The event’s signature pimento cheese sandwich is just $1.50.
This all makes sense when you consider it’ll cost you $115 to buy a ticket for one day of golf at face value (and significantly more on the resale market). That makes it a little easier for the Masters to make its menu cheaper than your local McDonald’s.
