Yeah, I feel like every time i got a bunch of sodas it was a challenge to get them back to the seats without getting it all over me.

Good Dog posted:I've only been to Wrigley once but I remember there basically only being Bud Light, Budweiser or Goose Island as the only beer options, and they weren't cheap. There were lots of bars within walking distance that'd offer a larger selection but I wasn't impressed. It was super nice to take the train and having it walkable. I think there might still be a stand where you can get Old Style.

Inspector_666 posted:Doesn't every live venue do this? It's to keep you from being able to easily throw a "sealed" container at the field/stage. No I mean like fountain drink sodas. No straw/lid, just the 20oz paper cup or whatever. 25oz beers/tallboys that are sold in a can are opened when sold and either poured for you or you're given a cup to do yourself. You can buy plastic 20oz sodas/waters (and can bring in your own water) which are obviously resealable, and I think they give you the 16oz aluminum bottled beers sans cup.

Chase Field is one of my favorite stadiums for food/beer, I've only been there once but I spent more time eating than watching the game. I had to google to find some of the places I ate at before and after, and somehow clicked around to a "weirdest hotdogs in sports concession" and found this racist hotdog On the menu it is called the HOTTODOGGU and has nori strips, pickled cabbage and wasabi  Makes sense, given the stadium it's served in Fedex Field, Washington Redskins

Giving a fan a can just saves the time it takes to empty a beer into a plastic cup. I assume it also saves time to have the customer get their own lid/straw for a fountain drink too.

Inspector_666 posted:The cheapest beer (I assume this would be the Bud Light) at Yankees Stadium is apparently right in the middle of the pack for MLB prices, but our hot dogs are among the cheapest! This chart is way way way way way off, even in 2006 when I went a beer at PNC wasn't that cheap. Now they're over twice that.

Not sure that is racist. ホットドッグ (hottodoggu) is Japanese for Hot Dog.  The worst food I ever had at a Japanese ball park in my younger days was when I bought some yaki tori and it was only the skin of the chicken.  But Japanese love their tap (namma) beer. The girls wear these heavy rear end beer packs and serve it up.

Popete posted:Milwaukee the only way to get to the stadium for most people is to drive and that sure as hell doesn't stop anyone from drinking. My brother and I were at a Cubs/Brewers game in Milwaukee a few years ago and directly behind us were the five drunkest people we have ever encountered. They were sloshed even before the first pitch and got worse during the game. They were obnoxiously yelling the names of players the Cubs didn't even have anymore. "FOOOOK-A-DOOH-MAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!" "GEO-VAH-NAYYYYYYYYYYYY" etc. With 2 outs in the ninth the least drunk among them threw a full cup of beer up in the air, shouted WOOOOO CUBBIEESSS YEAHHHHHHH" as the whole section was showered with beer. Thankfully an usher was right there before a very angry Brewers fan nearly decked him.

My favorite memory of the bleachers was a Brewers fan that spent the entire game taking $1 to $5 bets from Cubs fans on whether the current Cubs batter would get a hit. Before the first pitch of each PA, he'd set the odds at either 3 to 1, 4 to 1, or 5 to 1 based on the batting average of the hitter. The Cubs only got 2 hits that day, so he ended up taking quite a wad of cash from Cubs fans.

STAC Goat posted:Citizen Bank is the perfect stadium. Great food, an open design that keeps you in the game even as you're walking around, tons of great seats and the ability to just watch the game from your feet from anywhere (which is generally how I prefer to watch). I love that drat stadium and will take any excuse to go to Philly for a game and a cheesesteak. I like the Mets and the Marlins. I go down to Citizens Bank Park for Phillies-Marlins games, so that I can comfortably root for the Marlins with my old college friends (I went to Temple). CBP owns, and the seats & food & beer are sooooooo much cheaper than everything at Citi Field. quote:I miss baseball. Same.

I would think a hottodoggu should be a sushi hot dog. Basically a giant roll with a hot dog as the meat in the center.

ihatepants posted:I would love this recipe if you are willing to share it. I’ll make it for my wife as soon as we’re both done pretending that we’re going to eat healthier for the rest of 2018. 2 cups 1/4-inch wide strips fresh chicken skin. If you don't have a butcher nearby that will sell you chicken skins direct I recommend chicken thighs for the skin. 2 cups whole-milk buttermilk. 1 tsp cayenne 1 tsp salt 4 cups canola oil 4 cups flour 1 tsp freshly-ground black pepper 1 tsp garlic powder 1 tsp onion powder 1 tsp smoked paprika Preheat oven to 300F Scrape away as much visible fat as you can from the chicken skins if you want them crispy. Mix the buttermilk, cayenne and salt in a baking dish with the chicken skins. Bake for 1 hour. Remove the baking dish from the oven and let sit until cool enough to handle. Note: This part creates a strong smell. Remove the skin from the buttermilk, shake off any excess, lay on a wire rack set over a baking sheet to drain and further cool for 5-10 minutes. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Combine the flour, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and paprika in a bowl. Toss the skin in the flour mixture, coating heavily. Fry the skin in batches, approx. 5 minutes each. Drain the skin for 1-2 minutes on wire racks covered with paper towels. Serve on a platter drizzled with dark honey and hot sauce.

Its funny, I've been posting in the hockey thread for a few seasons now, but it took the Pirates imploding for me to finally start talking about baseball too. We've trying to decide where to go for our annual baseball trip this year, because my father, brother and I have just about all decided to not bother with the Pirates. We're thinking Atlanta or Baltimore, since my sister and her husband live in Charlotte and both cities are in driving distance for them as well.

I went to Milwaukee for a wedding and decided to catch a game while in town. They have buses that pick you up at downtown bars and sell you beers while they drive you to the stadium and then pick you up there after the game and sell you beers on the way back to the bar they picked you up from so Milwaukee is a fun place.

Kevlar v2.0 posted:The bleachers at Wrigley are one of two places in the city you can still get Hot Doug's sausages. The other being on a specialty pizza at Piece. They used to also have what I called a "meat tornado" but I have no idea the real name of it. It was a cone of bread filled with BBQ pulled pork and macaroni & cheese. It was also bleachers-only, so just like with the guest chefs thing, it's disappointingly restricted as to where you can get the good food at Wrigley. You had me at "meat tornado"

iospace posted:Barclay's is also kicking the Islanders out for "more concerts and other events". It's pretty mutual. The Islanders want out because the ice surface is by far the worst in the NHL. Hell, the whole league wants them to leave. Plus, since the building was never designed for hockey, they have to sell a good chunk of mid-priced seats on the cheap because you can only see one goal.

Anytime the Sox are in town it's an intense experience. You should definitely go, you'll have a blast. If you are driving there, don't pay $30 or whatever for parking. I always get free street parking within a 5 minute walk every time I drive in, without fail.
