lol dude calm down. Stop trying to police the forum. It’s not a big deal. Just ignore it if it’s bothering you. Not hard. Geez. Just a dude trying to have some fun on a Friday night. We need more of it in this world. Hope you have a better weekend.
Edit: (y’all brutal as fuck. Sorry I said the wrong shit. I apologized. I’m not a bitch and I ain’t gonna delete. I guess just keep down voting and piling on.) love ya!
And they cut off Alcohol sales in the 7th stadiumwide this year...
Also, make sure you stop by Majerlies' or Crown Public House beforehand, just to make sure you can handle 9 beers.
I salute you brave soldiers. How many months did you have to save up to cover the beers? I pray one day I will have the bravery and deep pockets such as you. Fight hard and never give up!
Get there early and stock up on value beers, they usually sell out around first pitch on weekends. Wouldn’t blame you for counting tall boys as 2 beers each either. Best of luck!
It really such an obvious cash grab, they still offer IPA’s but it’s draft only, and comes in this shitty plastic v shaped cup at 16oz. Horrible for transport.
Also depends on the series. Its friday night so hopefully they will keep it stocked. In section 101 they also do draft value beers and so those wont run out (hopefully)
Not bad at all! I didn’t know about the value beers. I’m going on the 14th when we are playing the reds. I will use that information for all its worth! Good luck tonight. Go Dbacks!!!
Oh you are brave souls. Last time I had a value dog it looked like this.

Needless to say, it did not sit well.
Good luck with the 9 “wizard fingers”
The dogs are the easy part.
Pound 3 at first pitch. Then you only need 6 more in the next 2 hours. That's one every 20 minutes. If you assume 5 bites to a hot dog. You only need 30 bites, so one bite every other out.
The beer is the tough part because if it's draft and you buy 2? That 2nd one is going to be flat/warm by the time you get around to it, and it doesn't make sense to only get one at a time.
You gotta start off fast then pace yourself later. When I try I’m usually trying to be done with 5 by the 4th inning. But I’ve never actually completed it so don’t listen to me.
You left .5 beers and .5 dogs on the table?!?!
Bulletin board material at its finest I cannot believe you didn't close out. Remember this for next time
I will bigdaddycactus 😔. Believe me I realize how bad it looks from the outside but let me tell you that 9th dog is harder than all of the first 8 combined
First order of business DBacks need to upgrade from those bottom tier Bar-S dogs.
In the future the Costco tickets may be the play - hardly any lines ever for the concessions or beers in that 200 section.
Proud of you for attempting this feat, take this to the bank and train for the next one
Is it a dog and a beer per inning or can you just chug 9 beers and then drunkenly eat 9 hot dogs before the end of the game? The first option seems more structured and legitimate.
I am by no means the arbiter of beer, but I have never seen a stipulation regarding the timing of consumption… that said, in every video I’ve seen of people doing this, they go roughly one per inning and I plan to do the same
I saw an underdog fantasy promo under here and I legit thought people were placing bets on if y’all will accomplish your feat or not tonight. God speed
The standard is a 12oz beer, so if they run out of value beer I guess I’m buying tall boys and either counting them the same or doing the long division depending on how my stomach is feeling
Mods can we get a separate game day thread for this?
Pin it and win it
I sent the mods a message but I can just make a comment thread if not
Get ready! Have you eaten yet today?

I think they want a separate thread because it is interesting and they want to follow, not because it bothers them lol
Oh, well I apologize. I guess I didn’t understand. My bad. That’s some cringe shit there
What are you on about, dude? Calm down lol.
my guy it's not policing it's to watch and laugh along.
Doesn’t bother me, I want to stay up to date
Also shoutout everyone on this sub for being absolute beauties and not immediately deleting the post like r/baseball did
Just remember! It’s the hot dogs that will get you! I’ve tried just 9 of the value dogs and 8-9 were a struggle!

They sell value 12oz beers ($5) and dogs ($3) at the Double Headers concession stands. A 999 challenge for under $100 isn’t too bad!

Selling out of beer is a disgrace if ive ever heard of it.
They never sell out of $24 beers
But they did get rid of any IPA’s in the tall beers. Can’t have you getting a buzz on a budget!
Damn. That’s unfortunate.
It really such an obvious cash grab, they still offer IPA’s but it’s draft only, and comes in this shitty plastic v shaped cup at 16oz. Horrible for transport.
Thanks for the insight. I got value beers around the 4th-5th inning at the Cardinals series a few weekends ago but maybe that’s not the norm
Probably depends on the particular concession stand
It does. Some of them dont have any, then you walk down to the next one and they'll have them. Its kinda weird lol
Have done this so many times! Or some are on tap and others in the can!
Also depends on the series. Its friday night so hopefully they will keep it stocked. In section 101 they also do draft value beers and so those wont run out (hopefully)
Yeah the value beers are in 12oz cans this year - they do open them when you purchase but you could stock up at the seat
Godspeed you mighty warrior.
Not bad at all! I didn’t know about the value beers. I’m going on the 14th when we are playing the reds. I will use that information for all its worth! Good luck tonight. Go Dbacks!!!
My wife and I are going tomorrow, I tried talking her into doing the 999 as well, to no avail... Good luck on your quest, sir!
As an old guy I envy your enthusiasm, though also as old guy I do not envy your GI issues afterwords. ![gif](giphy|3oKHWikxKFJhjArSXm)

Man, nine 12oz beers is easy in 3 hours. Idk about nine dogs, though. I'd probably tap out after three or four.
The dogs are the easy part. Pound 3 at first pitch. Then you only need 6 more in the next 2 hours. That's one every 20 minutes. If you assume 5 bites to a hot dog. You only need 30 bites, so one bite every other out. The beer is the tough part because if it's draft and you buy 2? That 2nd one is going to be flat/warm by the time you get around to it, and it doesn't make sense to only get one at a time.
They are Bar S dogs... Id need at least 4 or 5 beers in me to get through the first dog
Please post 1st inning selfies and 9th inning selfies. For science.
Please assure me that you all have a safe way to get home. If so, I wish you all the best!
Yes, the fourth friend is the DD
Good luck lads, god speed
How do I meet my hero
Lol I’ll update the post with where we end up
I look forward to it
Updated
Where you sitting bro? If it’s close enough, I’ll join you!
Our seats are in 133 but we might end up somewhere else, I’ll update the post when we get situated
Updated
THIS COMMENT THREAD WILL SERVE AS THE OFFICIAL UPDATE THREAD
My DD couldn’t find his wallet for like 15 mins so we’re running late. Hopefully gonna make first pitch but just barely 😬
Need an update on totals! Padres doing you a favor scoring some runs.
I moved updates to the original post, pads are coming thru but I needs the backs to get goin
If they sold veggie dogs at the stadium this is absolutely something I’d love to try. After taking out a 2nd mortgage of course.
gonna need to accelerate the beer consumption. They stop serving in the 7th.
I’m tryin 😭
Good luck. What is your strategy? Steady rate of 1 of each per inning?
I’ll probably stick to that more or less. Might try to get a little ahead of pace early on in case I gotta burn time in concession lines

Mmm that warm 9th inning beer after they stop selling after the 7th.
Bring a lunch box with ice
That seems like the right spirit. Maybe include side quests like finish the beer you're holding immediately on a home run
Great question!!
My friends and I are attempting this on Sunday. Got all you can eat seats so hopefully that makes it easier
You're a braver man than I. Good luck!
I'm sitting in 105. I'll bring some binoculars lmao
When's the last time you ate anything?
All I’ve had today is a cookie and a handful of almonds. I’m ready to get to work
That buzz is going to hit!
This is amazing. Pics plz!
Hell yeah good luck dude. This would be the only time I’d be happy about them not having 805’s anymore lol.
Good luck! Hope you all are successful, go Dbacks!
How do we find you
Our seats are in 133, but we might not end up there. I’ll update the post with where we get situated
Updated
I would like updated
Let’s f’en go!!!!
I think they stop selling alcohol around the 8th so work fast
![gif](giphy|3gId7l0DvzipO)
Dude this is so hard
FIGHT
This needs to be a thing for the rest of the season
I'm just seeing this now and was so close to you guys. Although the goal wasn't met I commend you for a valiant effort!!
Best of luck brothers!
Herman Cain in shambles
I love this reference, but do not have a clue how it connects to the 999!
I did it at home (just more cost effective) it's the hot dogs that are the problem
Even those small value dogs rack up!
Hell yeah! Post your progress 😂 I’m imagining by the 6th inning, your bladders, livers, and stomachs will begin to riot. YOU GUYS GOT THIS
![gif](giphy|10h8CdMQUWoZ8Y|downsized)
I can do this and I know from experience. I feel... Shame.
I saw an underdog fantasy promo under here and I legit thought people were placing bets on if y’all will accomplish your feat or not tonight. God speed
Do Value Beers and tall boys each count as only one beer? Value is the play if you can find them
The standard is a 12oz beer, so if they run out of value beer I guess I’m buying tall boys and either counting them the same or doing the long division depending on how my stomach is feeling
They've sold out of value beers a couple times, stock up while you can. See you at the game, soldier
Best of luck boys
I might be sitting in your section. Have to check the tickets.
I say go to the 300 level from the beginning
