Oversized Hot Dogs

Kyle Field Stadium is Celebrating its 12th Man with a 12 Pound Hotdog

— September 16, 2015 — Lifestyle
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.
Trend Themes
1. Oversized Food - Expanding on the concept of oversized hot dogs, there is an opportunity to create other supersized food items in the stadium and entertainment industry.
2. Gourmet Concession Offerings - Incorporating gourmet and unique food options into stadium concessions can enhance the overall fan experience and draw in more customers.
3. Luxury Stadium Amenities - The trend of upgrading and improving stadium amenities, such as luxury suites and restaurants, presents an opportunity for companies in the construction and hospitality industries.
Industry Implications
1. Food and Beverage - The food and beverage industry can innovate by introducing new and creative oversized food options in stadiums and other entertainment venues.
2. Stadium and Entertainment - Stadium and entertainment companies can differentiate themselves by offering gourmet concession options and luxury amenities to enhance the fan experience.
3. Construction and Hospitality - Companies in the construction and hospitality industries can capitalize on the trend of upgrading stadium amenities, such as luxury suites and restaurants.
