the cost is in hiring extra workers to make and distribute said nachos. Also, there are more dropped on the floor due to sheer volume, so you're losing more there as well.
Also promoting the event on paper, social media, and radio.

It occurs to me that at 1 million per promotion, I am laying out $13.89 per customer to give them free nachos.
The nachos only sell for $12, tops.
Someone is skimming $1.88 x 72,000 fans off the top, in excess of $135,000 a game.
The math here is incorrect, because you are making a few incorrect assumptions:
1) You do not base the promotion calculation based on lost sales (the charge amount) but instead on the cost of the nachos that you give out. This is a cost of goods sold issue, not a lost charges issue.
2) You have made the assumption that, when offered free nachos, each customer will only take one thing of nachos, whereas most customers will take multiple nachos, especially if they have been drinking copious amounts of beer.
3) Most importantly, said beer drinkers continue to *buy* nachos, despite the fact that free nachos are all available for them, so you see no dip in sales.

I am not sure if the correlation between me being stoned out of my mind, and foraging for food at seven eleven have anything to do with it, but dayum that orange sauce is some good shizzle.

1) Those workers should be there to shill the food anyway.
2) I am not actually paying the $12 for the nachos. My actual cost should be much much less than the menu price.
Its theft I'm telling ya.
The vendors went union.
