Thanks for posting this series. I'm loving this stuff. My uncles used to sell concessions at Tulane Stadium back in the day, and my grand parents sold parking on their lawn on Zimple St on gameday.

I have an uncle who sold drinks (Coke-a-Cola products) in the South End Zone at Tulane. I worked every Saints and Tulane game until the Dome was built. The vendors who had Tulane Stadium weren't given a chance to move.

My uncle constantly jumped my arse that my sales weren't where they needed to be because I was watching the game...my aunt wouldn't let him fire me!
