when amusement parks deny outside food brought in. most food they overcharge and the quality sucks compared to food that can be made at home.

What is so bad is there really is so little way around it. You would have to have a good friend drive there and bring you food. I've seen people pig out before entering just to save on money (my dad tried it once) but it doesn't work.

theme parks like Busch Gardens in williamsburg aren't so bad in food quality but it still isn't the same as restaurants around the area and they still charge so much.

It could be a health code thing.

Wow. I recently bought a $9 pound-o-dice from chessex, because I had a bottle of crown and nothing to put in the purple bag.

They used lower density plastic for a lot of them, so I actually got more dice than I expected, even if they were of lower quality.

I should note that I do not feel ripped off by this, even though half the dice were not as pretty as I would have liked.

I actually met Zocchi a few times. There was a little gaming shop in downtown gulfport, ms that he used to hang out in.
