To be fair, it's American beer, so that extra 4 oz is just water anyway.

Here's another *related=http://videosift.com/video/Beer-Rip-Off-at-Shea-Stadium-when-is-small-really-large

Funny in that video large cups only cost $1.25 more than the small. Funnier still is the stadium's response to that video: "Fans who purchased a 16 oz. beer actually received 20 oz. of beer for the 16 oz. price." So their excuse is "You're getting more beer in your small cup than you think," rather than "You're getting less beer in your large cup than you think."

Way to turn this into positive marketing, but it's just a flat-out lie if the small cup is actually 16 oz.

How can you be so sure without knowing the actual cups' measurements?

In any case, the cups are reported as 16 oz. and 20 oz., and they do fill the 16 oz. cup to the brim then transfer it to the 20 oz. cup and that is the amount of void space remaining at the top of the cup. Regardless of what it looks like, the difference must be 4 oz.

What are you suggesting as an alternative explanation? Is it magic?

Seems this is probably common practice. See also: *related=http://videosift.com/video/Ballpark-Beer-Scam-Oakland-Coliseum-Sham

Optical illusion, sadly. As noted up above, that little itty bitty top part is more than likely 4 oz. Considering the small cup is about to overflow (which you'd be ever so lucky to have them fill it that high mind you) and the large one isn't. Obviously, they are NOT the same volume. What they need to do is actually measure. I know, I'm going all weird and sciency here, but I'd wager that there's at least 2oz still to go.

Not to mention, where doe the manufacturer say 20oz is at? Is that small beer holding 18oz? or 16oz?

Plus, if you're buying beer at a game, you're getting ripped off in the first place. It's like people who buy iPhones for $400 but then complain when an app costs $1. Get over it.

Because the lip fans out, that last little bit can hold those other 4 oz.

This is like those videos where they show how much liquid the top half of a martini glass can hold, which is like twice what the bottom half can hold.

“It was recently brought to our attention that the amount of beer that fits in our large (20-oz) cups also fits in our regular (16-oz) cups. The differentiation in the size of the two cups is too small. To correct that problem, we’re purchasing new cups for the large beers that will hold 24 ounces, instead of 20, for the remainder of this season." Eric Trapp, the president of the Idaho Steelheads and CenturyLink Arena wrote on the team's Facebook page.

First of all how does the same amount of liquid fill a 16 oz cup and a 20 oz cup (although the 20 oz cup isn't filled to the rim as the 16 oz is, sure doesn't seem like a 4 oz difference). Even the new 24 oz cups will be a rip off. The equal value size to a four dollar 16 oz beer would be a seven dollar 28 oz cup. What a scam.

Hmm, so Stewart and Wilmore seem to be saying that the U.S. couldn't have ended slavery in the same way that New York, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Maine, New Jersey, Illinois, Pennsylvania, and all of the other Northern states did (not to mention the British empire, the Spanish empire, the French, the Danes, the Dutch, the Swedes, and many many others during the nineteenth century), namely, peacefully. (For reference, see Jim Powell's Greatest Emancipations: How the West Ended Slavery; and Joanne Pope Melish's Disowning Slavery: Gradual Emancipation and Race in New England, 1780-1860).

Rather, Stewart and Wilmore seem to be saying that 750,000 dead Americans (and even more than double that number maimed for life), to say nothing of the total destruction of the voluntary union of the founders, was in fact the only way to end slavery. Southerners (only six percent of whom actually owned slaves) were, according to Stewart and Wilmore, "willing to die to preserve slavery" and so, therefore, the Great Oz (er, I mean, The Great Abe) did what was necessary...

So says this renowned historical sage, Jon Stewart, and his cast of clowns...

Invented one by accident last week-I hate most rum, most hard alcohol really, and a friend brought over a bottle of the nastiest blended rum I have ever tasted, Kraken (great bottle, horrible rum). Here's the recipe:

1-2 oz Nasty, un-sippable Rum
2 oz Coco-Loco (had some in the fridge from the last time someone made a Daiquiri here
4 oz fresh-squeezed Ruby Red Grapefruit juice

Mix rum and Coco Loco together, dissolving the gooey loco with rum into a solution
Add ice and grapefruit juice, stir

VERY drinkable and refreshing,
The Ruby Loco
