Chris Christie loves food... And spending taxpayer money

I think anyone who looks at New Jersey governor and GOP presidential hopeful Chris Christie would be hard pressed to imagine him missing many meals and it would be reasonable to assume he loves America's favorite sport of Football. According to an article by the Huffington Post, Mr. Christie spent an estimated $82,000 on concessions at New Jersey's MetLife Stadium (home of the New York Jets and Giants). The Republican party has responded by saying that all $82k has been paid back, but one has to wonder how you can spend $82,000 on concessions in 1 year? We all know that stadium food is not by any means cheap to buy, but spread over 16 games that comes to a little bit more than $5,000 a game. Wow...
