Description: Concessions are the food services for a stadium. The Concessions page is where all of the concession contracts are purchased. Concessions bring in revenue at home games. The more concession contracts a team has, the more revenue they will make when playing at home. Concessions do not effect revenue when playing on the road.

Buying Contracts: The concession screen displays all the contracts that you currently have (and their expiration) on the left of the screen. The two columns on the right of the screen will display all the concession contracts that you have not purchased yet. To buy one (or multiple) contracts, check the box in front of the contract and click the "Buy" button at the bottom of the screen. If you have enough money the contracts will be added to your list of "Current Contracts" on the left. Please note that you must first withdraw money from the bank in order to purchase contracts. Only cash will be used when determining if you have enough money. This is to protect any bank money from automatically being used in the purchase of contracts.
Multi-season Contracts: Non-subscribed team's concession contracts last one season. If you subscribe your team mid-season, contracts automatically become two seasons if they were purchased during the current season. Subscribed team's contracts last two seasons. If your subscription expires mid-season, all contracts revert back to one season. If you re-subscribe during that same season, the contracts will go back to two seasons. Only subscribed teams enjoy the benefit of two season concession contracts.
Expiration: Contracts all expire on the last day of a season. The last day of a season is defined as the day in which your team's record becomes 0-0. This is a few days after the champion is crowned. It is therefore unwise to purchase concession contracts at the end of a season. It is best to purchase those contracts as early in the season as possible. If you cannot afford them early in the season it is probably best to save your money until the following season and purchase then.
Concession Revenue Factors: There are a number of factors that go into the calculation of concession revenue. In some way, all of the following items contribute to the revenue made with concessions each game (there are in no particular order): Ticket Price, Number of Concession Contracts, game attendance, and stadium type. By association there are a number of other factors as well, including fame. Fame rank is merely a guage by which you can measure yourself versus other teams in the leauge, it is not a measure that effects concession revenue calculations.
