I don't see any big posts complaining about them. The one down the 3rd base line seemed to be moving about the same as last year. Did y'all have any good or bad experiences? The corn dog seemed popular when I walked by.

I've really never had an issue from what I can remember. There's enough people working them that they really never have long lines and when they do they go quickly.

The answer is food trucks.

My nacho cheese was not warm but not complaining, the lines were moving fast, staff was polite & no issues like you read about during football season.

Saturday the concession lines were not long.

But Friday night the lines were miserably long. I skipped buying anything at main stand instead of missing an inning or more of the game. Went to an auxiliary stand & just bought overpriced water.

It was the first game but why weren't they prepared for the expected full house? This needs to be improved at The Box and at Tiger Stadium.

If you can’t watch a 3 hour baseball game without indulging in overpriced, unhealthy soft drinks or grossly fattening food, then you have a problem. I guess that’s why the average LSU baseball fan is a diabetic white 50+ aged whale that will be lucky to see their 65th birthday.

Lines were better tonight because everyone got a taste of the crappy Aramark food last night and opted out...

The major issues stem from the LSU/Aramark staff in charge that aren’t actually working the stands. If waters are out of stock, the people working a stand can not control that.

Cold cheese is an issue with the stand workers though.

I had no issues with concessions on the third base line. Totally different world than football.

My wife ordered the pulled pork nachos today... when they handed them to her, the nachos didn’t have any cheese on them. She requested cheese and they told her it was extra. How in the hell do you charge extra for cheese for NACHOS??

the first base concessions were on point. Crispy chicken, hot dogs not green, fries only mildly soggy but the beers were ICE cold!

I’m not doubting the wait times by any means but it always amuses me how these threads never pop up after a win

I bought a burger at friday nights game. usually the burgers at the Box are pretty good but this one was over cooked and small. There was plenty of lettuce and tomatoes and onions if you wanted to add that. But I found it odd that they had Ketchup and mustard but I couldn't find mayo anywhere.

Football too.

Addicts everywhere.

Food. Alcohol. Nicotine. Drugs. Doesn't matter.

The "Food Ads" can't go a few hours without stuffing their face full of garbage and they're too dumb to eat at home, pick up some fast food before the game or bring in pocket snacks.

Nope. They gulp down the over priced concessions and complain about the quality and service because they're addicts. They have to. That's what addicts do.

I went to Friday/Saturday games. Don’t waste your money on the jambalaya. There will be one tiny piece of meat hidden under a bed of rice served in one of those miniature taste test bowls. $8 well spent...

The new electronic menus and flat screens at the concession stands were a nice addition. You can't deny that.

We were at both games. We're usually at the 3rd base line stands. I love the monitors that can show menu items and the game. The chicken tenders basket was delicious. My gf had a chili dog Fri night and a big arse corndog yesterday. All the food was damned good for concession stands. The souvenir cup with a refill sticker is my favorite new addition to concessions.
