    this would thrive only on opportunism

    Yeah, I went to a Phish show at the gorge once and there were at least four cheap grilled cheese operations on shakedown street (their ad hoc, unsanctioned shopping area.) I don’t think anyone was as cheap as a dollar, but they were close (3 for $5?) and none of them took plastic.

    There were massive lines every time I walked by and the sheer robotic precision of the guys working the griddle was amazing. They had it set up so they were making batches of ~20 at a time, and new bread went on as soon as the last batch was finished. They were still going after the show got out.

    So it’s doable, but you have to be able to go where Phish fans are and tolerate them all day.
