The fried catfish guy was the best ever at that place.

John and his wife were awesome. Sno balls and catfish. I was the concessions manager for the Cajundome back in 2005 and we had concessions for all UL sporting events. We loved bringing in as many local vendors as would want to come. They do all the work, cover all the overhead and we get 30%. Plus gives the fans more options while at the event. No brainer.

Remember the hogie guy? That guy was the best thing that ever happened to food at the Tigue.

I miss him every game.

My wife gets the lemonade about every other game. She says it has yet to taste the same twice. SMH. The concessions have turned into a joke. We simply go out to eat before the game, if we hungry.

I do this also and stick to Vic’s peanuts and 16 oz Budweisers at the game. There are no expectations other than for it to be cold, it always taste the same and you always get the same amount.

Hmm.. I knew I’d smoke someone out. There’s A LOT more to this story.

And let me guess, only you know and you ain't tellin, Right ?

I second this. I looked forward to going to the ballpark to eat, when he was there.

Sodexo cut is so massive no one really wants to try. I've heard between 30-40%

That's a disappointing fact for me to learn. The local vendors were part of what made the Tigue great for me growing up. And as others have pointed out - the general Sodexo concessions are not good at all. And as others pointed out - food is a huge part of our culture and the university's culture. This makes our ballpark and the Acadiana area attractive. I think this is something the AD's office should be spending time thinking about as far as issues that need improvement.

I'm currently fasting for lent and thinking about this ain't helping!! LOL. I loved that guy too.

The guy that works the lemonade stand moves so slow he may be going backwards. I was the third person in line on Sunday and it took him him 22 minutes to get to me. Its the same at football. When Roy's was the lemonade vendor those cats were pumping out lemonades at lightning speed.

Up stairs general concession was horrible sunday. 3 slow high school students doing some sort of fundraising. If you ordered a beer they had to get one lady who worked for sodexo to get it. Which means you tied up 2 people. In a line 3 deep it took me 20 minutes to get a water.

My wife gets the lemonade about every other game. She says it has yet to taste the same twice. SMH. One time its like slightly flavored bottle water. The next it is 40% sugar. The concessions have turned into a joke. I give up. We simply go out to eat before the game, if we hungry.

Bingo! Eat before the game and enjoy the game without paying the high concession prices for generally bad food.

I can deal with average food, priced high but served quickly so I don't miss an entire inning. Over priced, bad food served very slowly is a deal breaker.

I think they are using local HS band members, which is fine. They are simply poorly trained and managed.
