The Warriors spent $200,000 on champagne for their locker room celebration. Here’s what they could have bought instead
11,717 thirty racks of Natty
The Golden State Warriors are NBA Champions once again.
It’s pretty easy to assume that these champions aren’t going to celebrate with a $16.99 thirty pack of Natural Ice, but their locker room celebration cost broke sports history.
With nearly 150 bottles of Moët Impérial Golden, costing $1,200 each, the Warriors sprayed bottle after bottle without a care in the world while the rest of us cringed as we witnessed our tuition spray into the air and fall without concern.
That means nearly $200,000 of champagne wound up on the floor solely for celebration purposes, not taking into account the amount of champagne available at the after party.
To put it into perspective, we calculated what $200,000 at Temple could buy the everyday struggling college student.
