Most expensive food item at Super Bowl LX is a behemoth of a burger

Feast your eyes on the most expensive food item at Super Bowl LX.

The Seattle Seahawks faced the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LX at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif., on Sunday. Many fans who were lucky enough to attend could purchase items you would find at nearly every NFL concession stand, like hot dogs. But a significant event like the Super Bowl also includes specialty items.

One of those options at Super Bowl LX was "The LX Hammer Burger," a beef patty that is large enough to feed four people, via Front Office Sports. 

What is the "LX Hammer Burger" and how much does it cost? 

The "LX Hammer Burger" costs $180. It's a cheeseburger that includes a bone-in beef shank in the middle. The bone protrudes from the brioche bun, with blue cheese fondue dripping from the burger.

For those who are wondering, why is there a bone in the middle of the burger? It makes it more shareable (via Griffin Missant of The Sporting News). 

For those wondering why it's so expensive, it's probably to generate even more money for the league. Citing ticket-tracking service TicketData, Reuters reported that the "get-in" price for two Super Bowl tickets was $3,361 across several major sites at 3 p.m. ET. With that in mind, fans who didn't attend the game may not be missing out.

Sure, they couldn't try the monstrous burger. However, they could whip up a homemade one. It may not be as tasty as the special patty, but at least they're not emptying their wallet to try it.
