Last weekend I was at HeavyMTL. While taking a break from the shows I was watching these guys delivery glasses of beer into the crowd. Get this:
Each delivery guy holds 32 cups of beer on his head in a rack. Each beer was selling for $8.00 each. The average tip was $1 to $2.00 per beer (going by my own tips). It took about 15 minutes for each guy to sell all 32 beers he took into the crowd.
That means he was making between $32 and $64 every 15 minutes, or $128 to $256 per hour. Pretty good!
Of course the beer stands were the ones making a real killing at $1024 Per Hour Per Beer Seller (there were about 20 of them), or $20,480 per hour. This does not include all the people actually buying beer at the stands of course. While I watched one stand sell about 50 beers in 1 minute (2 cashiers servering 2 lines) x 2 divisions in a stand), or 3000 beers per hour, or $24,000 per hour. PER stand (there were about 7 I think).
Of course the only beer sold there was Budweiser.
Smart, smart Budweiser.
