I, for one, would like a better food selection at sporting events. Frito Pie is a great start, but let's get real on this food thing.

IF Levy can't do it, can we open the concourse up for more local food options?

Yes Po boys , Beer and Frito Pie.
If the South should lose, it means that the history of the heroic struggle will be written by the enemy, that our youth will be trained by Northern school teachers, will be impressed by all of the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors and our maimed veterans as fit subjects for derision.

I'm down with that. Honestly, I put no, because I don't ever buy food at games. Even if it were good, I'd probably still prefer to eat before and after for less money with shorter lines and higher-quality food.
Be that as it may, the food shouldn't suck. It should at least be something that one could reasonably be expected to eat, and it should be at a price that one could be reasonably expected to pay, even if prices are a bit high.
Go Hogs, Go Cardinals, and Go Grizzlies!

We need to ditch Pepsi and bring back Coke.
If it makes crumbs, it's probably not good for you.

Pepsi has us by the nads on this one....contracts are a tough to get out of. Pepsi at least needs to put some Ginger Ale on tap and send the Frito Truck up the mountain - Frito Pies and Ginger Ale would be a good start

No.  I don't go to football games to eat gourmet.  Make the prices cheaper and sell more of whatever it is, like they figured out in Atlanta.  Concession proceeds went up 16% when they drastically lowered prices for food and drink.

It was a 7 year contract with 3 one year options, I'm not sure who has the option, so it "could" possibly end sooner.

It started July 1, 2012, so it could possibly end sooner, we'll see.

Frito pie is not gourmet....not many of the items mentioned in the past would qualify as gourmet....that I can think of. Maybe a couple....we will need to get 25.99 for the Cowboy Ribeye. Jerry Jones loves it, got to have it.


They can still be eaten by hand....

Frito Pie not gourmet? So much for you being an expert. You are now required to turn in your food expert card.
