I know, it sucks. $3.25 for a 20oz coke. You gotta be ******* kidding me!! Thats why I bring food in a cooler, that I leave in the car, get my hand stamped, and go back. Better that $6 for 2 slices of pizza, and $3 for some M&M's.

In an amusement park like your asking about they make alot more money on the rides and the games so to keep the profit percent margin they charge more for the food, also since you can't bring in your own food you will be willing to pay more.

Because they want to make money and they know you'd rather save time and buy food and drinks from them than leave the park, find food, and then find parking again, and get back in the park. They know what they're doing. If people didn't buy at such high prices, they'd lower them, but since they all buy the food and drinks, they can keep the prices high.

Monopoly on the prepared food market within its borders. Same holds true for Airport food - not a lot of options to leave and come back, so people pay a premium for the food.

Because that is the easiest way for there guests to get food. So they raise the prices because no one wants to leave the park to get a bit to eat.

thats how they make their money.....people are not going to go out of the park for food, so they will eat there and even the price wouldnt be a bother because of the convenience

Because they CAN. They know if you leave to get food you will have to pay another whole ticket to get back, and really who is gonna do that?

Because dumb people like yourself will pay for it. If people got smarter and wouldn't buy it, they would be giving the food away.

Because they have a captive pool of customers.
And the food sucks too, makes you wanna puke.
