I was told their beverage vendor was a no show. In that case, get some bins, fill them with ice and plastic bottles of water and soda. Problem solved. There were 3-4 GAs standing around up there...mostly monitoring their social channels.
Overall I’d love to see a concessions overhaul. But… Come on fellas. Logistically it ain’t this easy. A vendors ghosted and totally screwed Athletics. Google university dining hall staff shortages. It’s gonna be a struggle all year….

We have a huge open and, sadly, unused plaza area beneath the academic building where it'd be super easy to set up beverage concession stands. This would greatly alleviate the overcrowding beneath the stands.

Don't disagree. Wonder if covid caution stopped them from continuing what they did last year.

OK, well, I thought it was a bland statement about accountability without saying the responsibility lies with her and that she apologizes on behalf of the department. She implied that the responsibility falls with her operations guy.

Secondly, they had been overwhelmed with complaints after the Dukes game.She should have offered her "apology" the following Monday...or the next Monday. Perhaps she or a member of her staff has been reading this forum and finally realized they had to say something. Everything about this department has been a sh%t show in 2021.

Thirdly, the first fan to receive the honor of an email reply from Julie Cromer wins a genuine Super Beef Hoagie sandwich from Souvlaki's. (Must be redeemed between 11pm - 2:30am.)
I trust you hold a position of responsibility regarding large groups of attendees, during Covid. I trust you would have executed the games flawlessly.
Easy to shoot from the hip as a disgruntled alum. Hope most alums are not like you.
What does COVID have to do with concession lines that were 45 mins long for a bottle of water?

What does COVID have to do with our high level donor area having ZERO concessions available in their private area?

Guess that's someone else's problem, right Jer?

Good to see you can use COVID as an excuse but ignore the fact those concession lines in the cramped concourse were essentially superspreaders.

Sorry ... just a disgruntled alum shooting from the hip.

I'll blame Santa Claus. Maybe he can be held accountable? Or the Easter Bunny? Maybe Rufus the mascot ... can we blame him?

Let's not blame anyone and rejoice in what has become 2021 Ohio Football! That work, Jer?
I guess I should have expected such drivel from you. I guess you're an Epidemiologist.

This response is absurd. Every other school in the country is dealing with the exact same thing but somehow they manage. Go back in Sleepy Joe’s bed if you have nothing better to offer. It’s inexcusable to not be able to compete with an average high school team’s game day operations. To quote a very wise man who may or may not have been the 45th President of the United States, “All being woke means is that you’re a loser.”
