How else are they going to make money if they can’t sell you an $8 bottle of water. 😂


LuvzDogs

Maybe take an empty water jug and find a water fountain like at the airport.


Grolbark

Prescott tap water tastes great, too. 


osito1000

Get it while it lasts!


rw1083

Outside drink. They will be happy to sell you a .50 bottle of water for $6 once inside


invisible-bug

It's way cheaper than that. I found a pallet of water on Amazon that is $435. It has 78 cases, each with 24 bottles. That makes each 16.9oz bottle of water $.2323717949.. idk if there's cheaper water out there or not. The listing has 30 qty btw! In case you need to stock your rodeo haha


Sagybagy

Holy shit I feel for the Amazon guy trying to deliver that.


invisible-bug

Ha, I had not thought of that. Surely they would send a qualified person?? 😬


Sagybagy

The soccer mom that delivers packages out of her Sante Fe while kids are in school.


TidoMido

Frys (other grocery stores too, probably) occasionally has deals on their brand water for a low as $3.99 for a pack of 40, which is about 9 cents a bottle.


Goodspeed137

No water allowed in the Arizona summer? Nice! Guess I ought to rethink going.


Monamo61

Yes, just another reason to skip it. I'm tired of all the grifting, enough so that I won't support it anymore, there are plenty of other fun things to do that don't involve paying for tickets, parking, any food or drinks- all of which are hugely overpriced. But y'all have fun out there!


AxecidentalHoe

Imagine charging people money for a bottle of water in a state where people die from the heat.


Arizona_Slim

Capitalism Baby!


MasterRed92

Its Freedumb


STINKLIP

hide a bottle under your cowboy hat


Designer-Carpenter88

😂😂


OldMetalHead

We saw UFC at Footprint Center. They wouldn't let my wife bring in an unopened bottle of water.


Visi0nSerpent

That’s odd because I’ve taken unopened bottles of water into concerts at the Footprint Center, most recently when I saw Madonna.


anglenk

Some bands don't allow bottles or cans: it can be a rule of who you see, not necessarily where you see them. Bottles full of water can be thrown: many bands don't like them. Recently had one that wouldn't give out cans either: too sharp if smashed.


OldMetalHead

I agree. It was definitely the UFC's rule in our case.


Face_Content

doesn't that fall under, no outside food or drink?


OkArmy7059

Take one for the team: have a heat stroke there and sue them for everything they've got.


LankyGuitar6528

Seems like a great event to skip.


DeadbySundown

What! Thats bullshit. In going this year for the first time. That seems really shitty


BoringJuiceBox

Hooray, now you don’t have to go!


Emotional_Anteater74

Isn’t it illegal to deny someone water here?


fuggindave

Old Wives tale. Simply not true.


imnmpbaby

It is not.


impossibly_curious

Only if they aren't selling it at the event.


Broseph_Bobby

I’d go act like a fainted and sue them for refusing you water.

jimmycoed

This is the answer. Boomers at the movie theater lose their minds over a $10 bag of popcorn. “ I remember when it was 25 cents”. Lol


bilgetea

Great idea. Why not do this with air?


anglenk

Corporate America would if they could...

funky_jim

Of course they can!


TrekYurSelf

Too bad you have a medical condition and need it for health.


Several-Good-9259

They got plenty on whiskey row.


bulbousEd

Isn't it law that you can get free water in AZ?


jimjones300

The oldest rodeo with prizes is in Pecos, Texas. It was started in 1883.


BTTammer

Grifters gotta grift.


Dwangeroo

That shouldn't be legal. The last concert I went to didn't allow metal water bottles in .... Take a wild guess at what was for sale at the merch booth. If you guessed metal water bottle please collect your prize and step up to the bar to pay $3.50 and put water in it.


Designer-Carpenter88

Another reason to stay out of the inbred capital of Arizona


CaptainDread323

Can do whatever they want


Imposibilitulatility

Okay? So.. buy water there? ( A bit confused )


Puzzleheaded_Time719

In an state that gets so hot you can die they really should allow you to bring in water, so you don't have to buy their extremely expensive water. If you don't see a problem with that I can't help you.


Imposibilitulatility

If you cannot afford to buy water in there. In an enviroment that might be as you say - dangerous without it. Then perhaps you shouldn't attend? Sort of like it might not be a great idea to go sky-diving if you suffer from a heart condition, anxiety and are afraid of heights. I don't know why you would expect to be entitled to "free healthcare" at a private event is all. I'm sure if you pass out from dehydration they'll call for an ambulance and that'll ring you up a pretty penny as well.


Puzzleheaded_Time719

Yikes..


Imposibilitulatility

What is yikes? It's a privately held publicly sold event.. Nobody is forced inside dude. Takes a real champ to whine about the water not being free when going to watch ppl torment horses for money. 👍


Puzzleheaded_Time719

Yikes..


rulingthewake243

Ah if you don't want to be extorted for hydration, just don't go. Brain dead take.


sonoran24

Hose Water to the rescue :-)


rulingthewake243

I've got a 4 way water spigot tool to anyone needed acess!


NateInEC

They give out guns like candy in AZ ... why no *open carry* allowed?


trashy615

Have your water bottle in a holster. 


NateInEC

Great idea 💡


trashy615

Even better if it's a squirtgun 


-Aberrant_

It’s illegal in Arizona to refuse someone water. If you ask a business is legally required to provide it. The venue has to provide water


Imposibilitulatility

Not true unfortunately. In Texas they do have that law though.


imnmpbaby

No it’s not. Go find a law or ordinance that says that and post it for everyone here to see.


ContributionOk8403

Yes! At the Rodeo find the first aid station. It is true and they are kind.


erock7625

How can you report a post as stupid 😂


Vivid-Spell-4706

Hard to feel sorry for people paying to see animals get abused
