Eating a hot dog in an NFL stadium is an unavoidable tradition for many football fans.

But depending on the team and the local market, the price of this snack varies enormously from stadium to stadium, and the differences are sometimes surprising.

According to the most recent data, the most expensive hot dog in the league can be found at Highmark Stadium, home of the Buffalo Bills, where fans pay an average of $11.25 for this classic bite. Right behind them are the Las Vegas Raiders($10.26) and the Los Angeles Chargers and Rams($10.00 each). San Francisco($9.00) and Washington($8.99) round out the top 5 most expensive stadiums for a hot dog.

On the other hand, some stadiums still offer very affordable prices. The Atlanta Falcons come last in this ranking, with an almost symbolic price of $2.00, a strategy aimed at making the stadium experience more accessible. The Jacksonville Jaguars($6.93), Indianapolis Colts($6.04) and Denver Broncos($5.00) also offer prices below the league average. By comparison, the average price of a hot dog in an NFL stadium currently stands at $7.02.

Differences reflecting local markets

These price differences can be explained by the cost of living in certain cities, the commercial policies of the teams and the marketing positioning of each organization. While some franchises focus on a high-end experience and charge more, others choose to attract families with more competitive food and beverage prices.

For fans, this data shows that the dining experience at the stadium can vary as much as the show on the field. While some may fork out more than $10 for a simple hot dog, others still take advantage of affordable prices that make going out to the game a more convivial experience.
