Stadium Food

I usually don't partake in more than a cold beer at the arena cause we usually go out with friends afterwards but I was surprised to find 67% of Hurricane food vendors in violation.

Nice to see both the ACC and Rogers Centre in Toronto at 0%, that's good too see, in fact Ontario looks really good with the Sens home also coming in at 0%.

Florida looks really bad at all there stadium's, as well as the Washington Caps home which comes in at 100%.

I almost never get anything but drinks at a game. Food is overpriced and not very good usually.

I agree with this if you're talking about the regular food sold at the concession stands. But a lot of stadiums have specialty food places that are the bomb. Coors field actually has its own micro brewery and restaurant that has great sandwiches (and obviously great beer). Pepsi Center has a restaurant built underneath it (though still accessible during games) with amazing food. Target Field has 4 or 5 restaurants that are great. And all of their food is about the same price as an actual chain restaurant like Old Cs, Chilis or Red Robin. So it's still a little pricey, but it's not as bad as getting a brat and fries and being charged $11.50

On a related note, I was at the Brad Paisley concert at the Molson Amphitheatre in Toronto on Thursday and for a pint of beer they charge $11.75. I was appalled.

The ACC, Rogers Centre and Scotiabank Place (Ottawa) had no major violations. The worst venue was Edmonton’s Rexall Place, where a quarter of the building’s vendors did not pass inspections.

11 dollar bottles at every place downtown during the olympics, pure horse shit.
