Right now my stomach is just grumbling because I'm thinking about this topic. But how to
eat at the baseball game. It just that, you know, you can go broke by going to the baseball
game because the food is just so tempting. If, if you're on Atkins or your on some kind
of diet, throw it out of the way for a day. Because you go there you've got to grab a
couple of dogs, you got to get a beer or coke, or a pretzel, French fries, chili fries. It's
just amazing, it can get very expensive. So if you're going there with the kid, you know
they have special deals. A lot of times they have little family meals and they're great.
You know, you get a hot dog, you get a drink a lot of time you get popcorn. But man I'll
tell you, you know, stadiums have gotten to the point like you know I've gone to a couple
of games in San Francisco where you've got gourmet meals and they're fantastic and it's
just like, you know okay, I'll pay $20 bucks for a meal that'll basically keep me full
for about an hour. But that's part of going there, part of it is to enjoy that food, you
really throw your lifestyle out of the way for a day. You know, make sure that you really
go there to enjoy everything that it has to offer. You know, come with cash handy, you
know like I said it will be kind of, kind of expensive although most places take you
know, debit cards, credit cards whatever it is. But I will say it will add to the experience.
And make sure you get it early. Because once the game starts, starts, gets started you
don't want to, you don't want to disappear, because you don't want to miss any minutes
of the action. They do have people coming through the stands throwing stuff at you,
peanuts, cotton candy and that's always fun, but also, you know that's also even more expensive
than you know going up up above. So it's a lot of fun, don't let the lines really drive
you nuts, because you know what, it's worth it in the end run. You know, Dodger dogs,
you know I absolutely despise the Los Angeles Dodgers myself, but you know, when I go there,
man, five or six Dodger dogs later I've gained a couple of pounds. So anyways, it's a lot
of fun, chow down and enjoy. Alright so I will not testify for you in court, but technically
most stadiums won't allow you to bring your own food in. Doesn't mean you can't do it,
especially if you have a child. I do know for a fact they will let you bring in children's
food, especially if they're five years or younger, if they have a special diet. I know
that my wife and I, we took our, our two year old at the time, and we were able to bring
in formula and the whole deal. A lot of times they're very strict because post 9-11 restrictions,
they have to watch whatever is coming into the stadium. But I would avoid bringing the
food from home. I mean a snack here, and a snack there is one thing. But I truly believe
it's about going there and experiencing the food that's there what they have to offer.
Yes, it's made in mass and yes it's horrible for you, but it's part of what baseball is,
it's part of the America's pastime. I mean in America we don't eat well anyway, so you
might as well go to a game and do the same thing.
