This Is America, Hot Dogs Should Be Readily Available



Beer, peanuts & hot dogs (and making babies in trucks). That's what MLB baseball games are for.

The Angels switched their concession company from Aramark to Legends this season, and their performance to begin this year would have made Joe Blanton blush.


I had no issue eating hot dogs that were sitting in warm water for hours at a bikini bar, so I don't care how it's prepared, just give me my damn hot dog. On time.
I had the pleasure of waiting 15 minutes for a hot dog after I paid for it at the second game of the season. I thought I'd share my feelings with them shortly after.

April 2
You have probably already received 100s of messages about your new concessions company, Legends, but I needed to contribute.

I attended the first two games of this season and both times I have been disappointed. Very long lines, slow service and food wasn't even ready.

Where in an American ballpark is a hot dog not ready?

Last night I ordered 4 hot dogs for my family around 7pm at the Grand Stand in the club level. It's not like I ordered 20 hot dogs, I ordered 4; and that amount should be readily available for any individual.

I got 3 right away, but had to wait for the 4th. I waited 10 minutes in front of the workers... I finally had to leave because I had someone waiting for me at gate 4 for a ticket.

I had to go back to the concessions stand to pick up the hot dog, so I don't know the exact timing, but 15 minutes for a single hot dog is unacceptable.

I had the same long line experience on opening night.

I won't be buying any food at the stadium until I hear that there has been significant improvement by the Legends group.

Oh how I miss Aramark already.
