There were complaints of long lines for drinks & food at a recent bhmlegion game at ProtectiveStdm and at the recent AHSAAUpdates basketball tourney at LegacyArena. This week, BJCC hopes to keep the madness on the court, not at the concession stands.
March Madness is back in Birmingham, but how long will it take you to get a beer and a hot dog at the concession stand?
“There’s not a good reason,” Snider said. “It shouldn’t have happened. We’ve met internally about it. Believe me, it won’t happen again.”In 2017, the French-based Sodexo acquired Centerplate, Inc. a provider of food and beverage, merchandise and hospitality services at sports facilities, convention centers and entertainment facilities in the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada and Spain.
“That plan worked well in December when Alabama played,” Snider said. “That was full capacity. Back when we did the NBA exhibition game in the fall with New Orleans, we were right at capacity. So, we know the plan works and we just have to execute on the plan. We’re prepared to do that. We met earlier about it. I’ll tell you this. There’s people a lot better than me at it. I’ll sling a beer or throw out a burger if I have to.
Adequate staffing at a venue that has intermittent events and sometimes long or odd hours for concession workers can be an issue. There are workers based in Birmingham, but some workers will be brought in for the event.
