Fenway Park concession workers go on strike before Red Sox' weekend games

[LisaM]

1. One thing that annoys me at games is when concessions booths are staffed by charities.

I don't mind paying a little extra for concessions at a pro game. It's not cheap to provide a professional sporting event. But it absolutely ruins it for me when some untrained kid can't seem to understand a perfectly normal order or lets a hot dog sit there and get cold while they saunter off to get popcorn or something. Or when they're slow, or can't figure out how to have a few things ready ahead of time. Or can't make change.

I m all for paying people to run concessions and I am also for paying them well so that they can keep my experience flowing at a game.
