If he puts it on a truck, people will flock to it. Esp on gamedays. People will buy baked shite as long as it’s sold from a truck. Food from a truck is magical.

A big bag of concession stand popcorn would hit the spot as long as he doesn't charge 10 bucks like the movie theatre

Yeah this sounds terrible unless there is some other activity out there. Maybe a beer garden.

Thanks for getting the Alan Jackson song out of my head.



Well we fogged up the windows in my old Chevy
I was willing but she wasn't ready
So I settled for a burger and a grape snow cone
Dropped her off early but I didn't go home

Is there any topic today that "Chatahoochee" doesn't work in?

Seems like a real long shot. There are a couple places in town like this this..Frankie's Dawg House in the Perkins food district area that seems to do OK?

I agree with a lot of posters about the food truck idea. The food truck fad seems to have legs and still seems like it is growing. If he can come up with some really unique take on stadium food and take it on the road maybe he could make it work. Selling just plain dogs and stadium cheese seems like a recipe for a quick flame out. Wish him luck.

Compared with 8-10 years ago, I don’t think it’s growing at all.

Set up side businesses to distribute all of his inventory to him. After he fails, offer to sell his money back to him at a 50% loss.

You both win.

My dream retirement scenario is owning a fleet of hot dog, falaffel and burrito carts in a downtown area.

Yeah but you're the idiot that doesn't think Top Golf is growing either.

If his bathrooms are spotless and he's within reasonable distance from the interstate, then people will stop there to grab a burger, fries, and coke, and to take a dump.

This is true, about ten years ago some moron decided to open a crepe bar in downtown Athens. That's right.... a fricking Crepe Bar. They make crepes.

So it’d just be a well run McDonald’s.

If he’s near campus it’d do great on gamedays. Otherwise prob not.

He should lease a small lot or buy one near LSU and just serve sports bar food. Have a small shack with a large patio and fans to keep people cool. Hang tv's and serve alcohol
