LOS ANGELES (AP) - Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jack ... and throw in a dozen Dodger Dogs, too.

The Los Angeles Dodgers will give fans something to chew on next season: all-you-can eat seats.
The right-field pavilion at Dodger Stadium will be converted into the special section, giving around 3,000 fans as many hot dogs, peanuts, popcorn, nachos and sodas as they want.

Tickets will sell for $35 in advance and $40 on gameday, and some items at the concession stand aren't in play - beer, ice cream and candy will be sold separately at regular prices.

"Instead of paying cash, fans ask for whatever they want, and they get it. There are going to be some self-service parts, buffet-style, as well," Dodgers executive vice president and chief operating officer Marty Greenspun said.

$25-30 seems pretty steep for a couple of hot dogs, cokes and a bag of peanuts.

Randy - have you BEEN to a major league baseball game?

Two summers ago, I had the privilege of taking my oldest son to a Cubs game at Wrigley.

One beer
Two sodas
Two Italian brats
One bag peanuts
$35.00

The Dodger Deal doesn't seem like such a bad deal, even if you have to get the beer and candy, etc. separate.

Brianl is right. Price-wise, stadium food for a normal-sized family can be like having to buy an extra ticket or two.
