Atlanta Stadium food prices for England game ‘felt like stealing’ compared to other World Cup venues
England supporters were treated to more than one victory in their World Cup Round of 32 match against DR Congo on Wednesday.
The Three Lions advanced to the last 16 with a hard-fought 2-1 victory thanks to two late goals from Harry Kane.
Meanwhile, England fans at the Atlanta Falcons' Mercedes-Benz Stadium were also treated to cheap refreshments.
Former England international Stan Collymore even took to social media to highlight the food and drink prices.
Why Atlanta Stadium's food prices stood out to England fans at the World Cup
The 2026 World Cup in the United States, Canada, and Mexico has been criticised as the most expensive in football history.
From ticket prices and food and drink to accommodation and public transport, fans have had to spend fortunes to follow their teams.
That is why Stan Collymore was so surprised to have spent so little on food and drink during England's clash with DR Congo.
"Atlanta Stadium food is by far and away the cheapest at the tournament," Collymore posted on X.
"A large pretzel and Coke £3.80 rather than £30.80. Felt like I was stealing it when the guy told me how much it was."
Famous horse racing influencer Stephen Power responded to Collymore's tweet: "Mr Arthur Blank: Take a bow for not ripping off fans."
Arthur Blank is the owner of MLS club Atlanta United and NFL team the Atlanta Falcons, who both play at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

The American businessman has earned a reputation for being exceptionally generous to fans regarding the price of refreshments.
"There's a whole story behind that Stan… Arthur Blank founded Home Depot (basically America's B&Q equivalent)," an X user explained.
"He makes a point of keeping concession prices reasonable as a thank you to fans who support his teams."
It was certainly a welcome surprise for England supporters—a bonus to their 2-1 victory over DR Congo.
