Hey, beer prices can get high at professional sports arenas, but this was criminal…literally criminal.
Here’s the deal…
According to the Miami Herald, Nathaniel Collier, 33, was arrested by Miami-Dade authorities after overcharging a fan more than $700 dollars for two beers during last weekend’s NFL game between the Miami Dolphins and the Los Angeles Chargers.
Collier, who had been at the Hard Rock Stadium on behalf of Kentucky-based subcontractor Rocket Man, was charged with third-degree grand theft and possession of a skimming device and held on $10,000 bond.
In a statement to the Miami Herald, a spokesperson from Rocket Man expressed remorse…
“As the chosen provider of walking vendors across dozens of stadiums, we take the matter of security extremely seriously, and train and monitor our vendors to safeguard our customers. Our onsite supervisor contacted the authorities immediately upon learning of the overcharge on what was Mr. Collier’s unauthorized personal device.”
Not surprisingly, Rocket Man has fired Collier and the victim of this stupid beer crime has been reimbursed.
