Athletic District Concessions

[slbpsi63]

Since we can't eat a UCF Knight for canbalistic reasons, I suggest the fare to be minnie winnies. I'm just sayin'....

1.) Green or Gold Beer... pick your poision

2.) Custom game related food choices...

i.e. if we are playing WVU then the menu should have Fried Mullet on it... if we are playing the Gayturds then have Gators Bites... if we are playing Miami then have Ibis wings... etc.

You can't do it with all of the mascots, but you can do it for about 90% of them.

I like your ideas, but that's just not feasible for Aramark in my opinion. They need menu items that are there every single day (to make buying easy on themselves). From what I've been told, they are going to actually be COOKING food at the concession stand at the baseball/softball stadium, instead of just serving pre-cooked foods.

I like the Taco Bus idea someone mentioned above. I know it is not Aramark, but I honestly believe getting contracts with some of the local food trucks on Tampa to come to sporting events. Some for baseball, some for football, etc. This way, we help out local foods and businesses, while serving unique foods in a unique way many places havent tried. If not at sporting events, then we should do this on campus in general. Have a handful of trucks at different spots around campus(Medicine area, college of business, greek village, etc), and have them come on different days too.

Ex. Mondays and Thursdays Taco Bus comes to campus. Tuesdays and Fridays Wicked Witches comes to school.

I love this idea. Plus the local food trucks would give visiting fans a real taste of the local fare here in tampa instead of generic concession stand food.

This or something similar would be great.

LOCAL FOOD like Taco Bus.. not just standard plain crap

Green beer!!!

Or have Yuengling supporting and have a small area for Beef's since they started here...

we can build a strong foundation with them both.

Of all places, this is where FIU got it right. If anyone went to the USF game, (or is from Miami and actually went to any FIU game...) they have local venders selling food in the stadium

It smells SO GOOD with all the spanish food all over.

Screw Yuengling, how about Tampa Bay Brewing Company or Cigar City, two truly local breweries.

As you probably know, those with the power to influence this often check in here for info...I'd suggest keeping the suggestions coming and comment on what you think would be best.

Me, I won't get to many games, but I like the idea of having something unique to our venues. The risk with Aramark is that you get the same old stuff you get at other venues or workplaces (like mine). Hopefully we push them to offer some unique items.

[cmhatter]

agreed, a unique item would be great.
