There’s a lot of numbers to take a look at as kickoff for the national championship in the College Football Playoff draws closer. However, for some fans, some of the most important figures will be what they’ll be paying for concessions inside of NRG Stadium tonight.

Ahead of the national title game between No. 1 Michigan and No. 2 Washington in Houston, Brett McMurphy of Action Network has shared the in-stadium prices for snacks and refreshments.

Drinks
Premium Draft Beer – $16.55
Premium Bottled Beer – $14.95
Domestic Bottled Beer – $12.65
Buzzballz – $10.95
Bottled Soda – $7.85
Bottled Water – $6.95

Snacks
Specialty Dog – $12.89
Greek Dog – $12.55
Peanuts – $7.65
Rold Gold Pretzels – $5.95
Cheez-Its – $3.99
Chips – $3.45

If you’re wanting to indulge in a brew tonight, it’s going to run you anywhere from a dozen dollars up to $16.50 for a premium draft. Spirits in the form of a Buzzball will be a dollar less than that at around $11 tonight. If not, the other drinks are going to cost between seven to eight dollars for water or soda.

As for snacks, the franks are obviously the highest-dollar items between $12.50 to $13. Peanuts, pretzels, Cheez-Its, and chips are also on the menu anywhere from three to eight dollars.

The crowd inside NRG Stadium should be right around, if not more than, capacity with a playoff championship on the line. Meanwhile, out on the concourse, attendants now have their options for what should be a great night in H-Town.

Washington State Department of Natural Resources roasts Michigan

The Washington State Department of Natural Resources woke up and chose to stir the pot on social media ahead of Washington’s national title game matchup in the College Football Playoff versus Michigan.

The “Huskies” nickname for Washington actually makes sense since there are plenty of the light-furred dog in the Pacific Northwest. However, the region is also home to a little mammal called the wolverine, which just so happens to be Michigan’s school mascot.

What the Washington Department of Natural Resources is wondering is why Michigan goes about calling themselves the Wolverines when the animal isn’t even native to Michigan? Nor does it even exist in that particular pocket of the United States?

On the day of the national title game, their Twitter account sent out this post:

“Good morning from the only state playing football today that actually has wolverines.”

What a burn on Michigan ahead of the biggest game of the season.
