Fans Shocked After Discovering Stadium Selling Burger For $25,000

To be fair, the burger sounds banging, featuring a half-pound Wagyu beef patty, premium Tillamook cheddar, grilled lobster tail, fried egg, heirloom tomato and bibb lettuce.

Bumping up the price is some truffle aioli and foie gras wrapped in - you guessed it - gold leaf.

All of this is served in a toasted brioche bun with a side of parmesan waffle fries.

Now, I know what you're thinking: how does this all come to $25,000? Well, the burger isn't the only thing customers get.

The most important side of all is a genuine limited-edition World Series ring.

Even so, that's a helluva lot of money for us mere mortals, but the good news is punters can also bag the burger alongside a replica of the ring for the far more reasonable price of $151 (£115).

Since making its debut at Truist Park baseball stadium last week, the online community has had a lot to say about the 'World Champions Burger'.

Many Twitter users weren't convinced, with one writing: "Doesn't look much better than the burgers in the chop house."

Another joked: "I'll be putting out a gofundme to buy this burger at the next braves game."

A third chimed in: "Fine sell some $25k limited edition rings, but with a burger lol. Such a weird idea - no one going to the game goes to the concession and says 'hmm, for an additional $24.98k I can get a ring - sold!'

"Likewise, no one buying a ring cares about a $20 burger."

Even the cheaper option wasn't for some, as revealed by a fan who said: "I don't care how great my team is and how much I enjoy celebrating the fact they won, but I'd never spend $151 for a loaded burger with a replica championship ring.

"Sorry @Braves. That's just too much no matter the team, in my case, @Astros."

However, others were more positive about the idea, including this person who wrote: "This weekend going to give it a try!!"

Another said: "You gotta try it ONCE! C'mon!"

That last commenter not realising that 'trying it once' is enough to bankrupt most of us right now.
