re: How tone deaf is Joe Alleva when it comes to this corporate tailgating company?

I don't disagree. The problem with Joe is that the poor use of this "tailgate service" will be blamed on the availability of the free tailgating spots. This is the first step in spreading this across campus. How often have people reported over the last few years that Joe is looking for a way to charge to be on campus.

Re the concessions. Aramark sucks. But the prior service was only marginally better. I think the problem is that, once again, we pay a premium and get inferior product. I don't think anyone is saying the food/drink has to be free. Everyone just wants to get what they pay for after taking into consideration the fact that it is a football stadium.
