Anyone going to a baseball game and wants more than a hot dog, peanuts, and sunflower seeds with a beer if possible is not a baseball fan.
their hotdogs look like a dried up cat turd.

I actually witnessed a Athletic Department higher up timing people in line a couple weeks ago. He said he was timing how long. it took to complete an order. They are catching hell over concessions and documenting everything.

THEY ARE LISTENING.


Yeah, and they need to do that at Kyle Field in the fall

Concessions at Kyle are a DISGRACE

Why would AD people need to hear from us to know they royally screwed concessions up?

If they go to games like they say the do, they would know

Have a little pride in your product

I just want lids and straws at this point. How are they a wind hazard, but napkins are allowed?

A positive note, I just paid $8.75 for a Sam Adams IPA(I think a glass is extra) at LAX. That's positively insane. Ok, w/tip $10.

We dont play tceh anymore. There isnt an inherent threat of them being thrown onto the field like tortillas. I think they should reinstate lids and straws

What's insane is choosing to drink an ipa

If they sold beer at Blue Bell, that Sam Adams would have cost you $37.50

And it would have been heated in the microwave before handing it to you

I would just like for once, concession stand operators to look at the weather forecast and buy coffee/hot cocoa accordingly.

You mean you want monopolistic competition to be sensitive to market demands?

Go ahead and hold your breath.

A baseball game is under 3 hours, and we don't even have double headers anymore. So who really cares about the food choices?

Probably people with families, those that leave directly from out of town jobs and can't stop to get food, college students, etc

Those with kids that rush to the games with no time for dinner at home.

Please provide smaller popcorn portions. I come to the games alone and don't buy because it's too much. Also maybe provide bags of different chips not just peanuts and seeds.

Pro tip. If you're bumping a thread from 9 years ago talking about how bad concessions are, good chance nothing will change now

Can you guys please quit inventing things to ***** about?!? Geez. Let it go. BBP has so much to offer, as does the team. If you don't like it, eat before hand. Stay positive.


How can we have a BBP and the concessions don't have blue bell ice cream in the freezers? It's not like they are a sponsor or anything.
Not sure you want that now.
The Blue Bell problems are all from Broken Bow, OK. I would assume that not much of that location's product is shipped to BCS. Shirley Blue Bell is smart enough to stock this community from Brenham.


Don't call them Shirley.

A friend and I pitched the concessions director on a new sausage and boudin when we moved to the SEC…every person in the meeting was blown away by the quality, and especially loved the idea of serving boudin at football events. It would kill! They backed out last minute because of a board member within A&M who happens to be a board member of a well known crap sausage company in the area didn't want any competition even though they don't make boudin and they barely make edible sausage. Never trust the association. Its all conflict of interest if you pull the curtains back.

Curious who you are talking about that is on the board of directors for Slovacek Foods and on the BOR for the university.

I have no issues with the quality of Slovacek meat, and their company does a lot of good in a lot of communities around here (as well as donate quite a bit of money to the athletics program at TAMU). The owner is also a former student.

Edit- obviously the wrong emoji
