Best Arena Popcorn

breakout · Post by **breakout** » Tue Jan 06, 2009 5:24 pm

Serious topic here

I like to eat popcorn while watching hockey ........ nervous habit, maybe?

Which arenas are offering up the best popcorn?

Which arenas shouldn't I waste my money buying popcorn at?

I gotta support this statement. It's reasonably priced too.

pardon me for straying a bit from the popcorn topic and let me comment on PIZZA. The absolute best pizza, beyond the shadow of a doubt, absolutely, positively 2nd to none, is the pizza at wakota!! Old World Pizza in I.G.Hts makes it.

Best popcorn and best pizza in once place, got to love it!

I like the popcorn at Plymouth. Breamar's is o.k.

How about the Heritage Center in Duluth?

I hear they are using freshly popped popcorn in boxes as feet warmers in Freezeberger (Fryberger) Arena. People in the Arrowhead are always ahead of the curve.

Fogerty has 'topping'. Quite tasty. Hopkins can be solid.

Haven't had the popcorn at Heritage yet. It's cheaper (50 cents cheaper?) than at tDECC, so that's a plus. The hot chocolate there is good.

Do any of the arenas have a subway in them? You know possibly some kind of food for people that like having a healthy heart.

You can get a sandwich at Aldrich - ham, turkey or salami. And the popcorn is average, same as most arenas. Hastings' popcorn was so salty you could preserve fish in the stuff.

Subway can be found at Gophers games.

How about the grub at Roseau? They know how to do it right.

expanding the topic here a little, but hands down the best concession stand in the state that I have experienced at a high school game is Fergus Falls. 2 or 3 homemade soups, loaded baked potatoes with many different toppings, pulled pork sandwiches, tacos, loaded nachos, the list goes on and on. All of this homemade. I will miss that place after being in their holiday tourney for the last three years

How about the Turkey sandwiches in Roseau? Pretty darn good!

Eden Prairie has good popcorn, but with the small boxes, you only get two kernals per box.
