The Atlanta Falcons are literally giving away free money.
Earlier, the franchise announced a menu that will offer ultra-affordable concessions at their new Mercedes-Benz Stadium which opens next season (more about that here).
Now it is reported by Darren Rovell of ESPN that the Falcons are sending prospective season-ticket holders a $2 bill in the mail. complete with a custom note signed by wide receiver Julio Jones.
Rovell posted a picture of the note he received, signed by No. 11 himself.
“Darren, First Hot Dog is on me!”

The Falcons’ menu will offer $2 hot dogs, pretzels, popcorn, regular-sized Coca Cola and Dasani bottled water.
We have to hand it to the Falcons for their superb creativity on this one.
The Falcons have also promised that they would honor their cheap concession menu when they host Super Bowl LIII in 2019.
