You missed my point completely. The cups on that site are not for you and me, the end consumer, to buy one of, and they're not typically sold by the retailer as a souvenir item sans drink. Cups which are not disposable and which have a logo of some sort on them are 'souvenir' cups and the retailer/concessionaire usually jacks up the price of your drink (which goes IN the souvenir cup) by more than enough to cover the cost of his 9 cases of 300 cups each.

You get to finish your drink, take home your giant sized souvenir cup and forever remember the wonderful time you had at the TIRE AND WHEEL EXTRAVAGANZA OF 2007 in Umberto, Oklahoma. :p
