The Texas A&M football team will soon play out of a 102,000 person capacity at Kyle Field. In rewarding its extremely large 12th man, the stadium thought that it should feed the crowds with the 'Aggie Dog' a four-pound, 12 foot long hot dog.
The massive concession offering is most definitely a record for stadium food and can surely feed a number of hungry fans. Many are assuming however that the hot dog is only a temporary fixture to help unveil the other upgrades that the 485 million dollar renovation brought about.
Other delectable snacks at Kyle Field include chicken fried hot dogs, chicken fried chopped steak burgers and bacon bleu cheese fries. The updated stadium is also now outfitted with more luxurious suites and restaurants. Modern sporting stadiums are now becoming more and more of an attraction -- or irresistible distraction -- for many.
