shorttrack29 Posted March 28, 2004 Report Share Posted March 28, 2004 had i known it'd be 1/2 price during romco, i'd have waited to get my frito pie and nachos until then. i went with a friend and dropped $40 (including the ticket). pretty high, but on a normal night it would be $6 less for admission and the $3 alcohol permit would be another beer.

car05 Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 I didnt get anything from the concession myself, but everyone I talked to that did said it was horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoom Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 must be a conspiracy. The pit concession food at SAS is cold, old and high priced too. I heard there was new people running it also. I tried a french fry from a friend that he paid 2 bucks for and the thing had been re-fried so many times that the outside was hard/rubbery with almost no potato left in the middle. Hope the concession improves. I might get hungry. Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corvette john Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 I did not have a good experiance at the food counter, but still did my job supporting them..... I would think its hard to have hot food fast... maybe they could have times when food would be sold burgers at 7 hot dogs at 730 and fries at 8 lololololl Red Shark Racing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh42 Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 I can say I was totally amazed when I paid 3.50 for a cheeseburger that was a tad bigger than a hockey puck with meat, cheese, and bread. I would at least expect to get lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles on the burger but didnt. Then $2.00 for a coke that would be $1.00 at a convience store. Then the nachos which are usually pretty good at the racetracks Ive gone to were ok but what was the date on the chips cause they were a little stail. Then in talking with my mother who was in the stands with my father and my better half saying that when she and my girlfriend went to the concession stand at the bottom of the stands it was like a free for all to get your food. Like it was self service which is fine but from what I heard it was nasty with condiments and ketchup and mustard on the counters. From what I heard from some people is they thought it wouldnt of passed a health code test. I also heard from a gentleman who raced with the dwarfcars that one of his crew guys got a cheeseburger that the bun was cold, and the meat wasnt cooked totally. I honestly think that if I'm gonna pay 3.50 for a cheeseburger I gonna get something that is worth 3.50 but that cheeseburger I got wasnt worth 1.00. Maybe THR can take notes from HMP and when you serve a cheeseburger which if I remember correctly it was 2.50 for a cheeseburger in Houston you get a a cheeseburger that is worthy of being sold at mcdonalds or sonic and not one that is worthy of something out of a microwave dinner.

racegirl15 Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 I didn't have a good experience @ the concessions stand either (not the one in the pits, or in the grandstands...) but let's just hope it was because it was the first night!?!?!

turn4 Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 I agree. The consession price increased, the quality went down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kathy Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 Well I know on one will believe me but, I had a hotdog that was pretty good and then a frito pie later and it was good. I did notice that the hamburgers where all ready wrapped in foil. This is probably why they where cold. Last year they warmed the burn on the grill and then put the hot meat on it. Maybe they should not do that, the foil part. Duh! I know the cokes where 2.00 last year. Still are this year. And the burgers where 3.50 I think and thats what ya'll said they were now, so that did not go up. Hopefully things will get worked out better for the next race. And hopefully our fearless leader will read this and mention these things to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racingmom Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 I had a turkey leg, it was ok. Someone else had one and said that it was not cooked all the way. I sure hope that they get DIET COKE !!!!! I'm sure it had a lot to do with opening night. I was glad to see that there was a few new snack items. I do hope that they keep fresh food, last year I got chips that were way out of date and when we checked they were all old. But they left them to be sold to others.
