Needs to be said. Concessions


Why do people care so much about concessions? Just eat before the game.

But will they do anything about it?

I have it on good authority that Athletics got absolutely arse-blasted this week by fan emails complaining about the DJ and the screeching girl, and just the mere fact that we have that shite.


Did LSU get rid of them?

I get that too and heard it’s nice and even have been but there should be some pride in this and do something for his fans.
If he didn’t have Louisiana ties I’d better understand.

I don't understand how or why he doesn't just rent the concession stands out. Would make as much money and all LSU would have to do is see that the right people are able to get into the stadium to work their rented convession stands.

I must be the luckiest dude ever or just not visit the concession stands as often as some of you but I’ve never had any issues with them telling me they’re out of stuff. I’m usually grabbing a water /soda and some type of sandwich or peanuts. Sat in 302 but I move around each game to diff seats.

Weekly bitching thread about concessions for years now. I'll tell you what I tell everyone else: Take LSU's obvious hints and stop going to games. They don't want you going to games anymore. They keep making it more miserable every year because they have their media money and don't want to pay all the additional upkeep costs.

"Phucking DJ"
.
The LSUAD has a lot of Phucking Morons working there. Who made the decision to initiate this abomination?

No, it's not bad enough that they spew out that Piped-In Shite that's universally hated. They have to make it much worse with the DJ crap. It's almost as if they're consciously trying to run people off.

They don’t even care about that.

I went to go grab one 2nd quarter. Guy w a straight face said they were out. I asked about the 5 ft stack of cases behind him? He legit said “oh, I guess I should ice some of those down. I thought we were out”

This is the answer I got when I emailed them.

Thank you for the email regarding our concessions operations, as we are continually evaluating areas to improve our overall concession operations, which Aramark operates.



Before the 2022 season, Aramark emphasized the need for local staffing and local food options.



Aramark increased the number of Non-Profit Groups that worked throughout the stadium. We will try to grow this participation each year as these groups tend to provide the customer service and reliability that our fans deserve. In 2022, we had nearly 30 groups participate.



Regarding the local food options, the following subcontractors operated in Tiger Stadium during the 2022 seasons:



Queen Eats
Louisiana Creole Creations
Leroy’s Lemonade
Tbeaux’s Roux
Tre’s Street Kitchen
The Shed
Lucky Dog

have attached the 2022 maps of the stadium that identify the locations for these vendors. (note that these locations may change for this upcoming season)



Aramark is working to improve and expand these relationships for the 2023 season.

I appreciate your support.

Geaux Tigers!

And people wonder why nobody goes or stays the full game.

Paying too much for season tickets to eat high school concessions.

Get some real damn food and make the fan experience more enjoyable outside of your arse in a cramped bleacher seat, like the NFL has done, and maybe people will go.

I mean that’s basically how it works with Aramark.
