Salted pretzel with cheese guy here. I'm not a hot chocolate guy because it's always been luke warm at best.
Favorite/Least Favorite Concessions At Kinnick

Went to my first game in 1963. I have never bought any concessions at Kinnick other than Coke to mix with smuggled in rum...
The hot chocolate was like the warming nectar of the gods for ten year old me at the "Floyd of Snowsdale" game back in '91.
And if you enjoyed your Minute Maid Frozen Lemonade in the 2000 season, you're welcome. I did my best.

We rarely purchase any items from concessions. We do collect cups and popcorn tubs from the ground once a year if they have a cool theme. We bring good food from home and tailgate our assess off! Sometimes we eat at a restaurant.
Sprite and chicken wings with tater tots from the north end zone concessions.
Most, if not all their products are so over priced——but—- I do like their tub of pop corn— seriously— would it break the bank to have a bargain once and a while.
Womens BB seems to be able to give their fans some deals........

I buy 2 season tickets and my brother comes to most games with me. He will buy us each a pretzel and a 20oz bottle of Coke.
I get the salted pretzel (without cheese) almost every time and almost every time it's dried out and hard to chew. So disappointing.
I never want to say anything good about Nebraska, but there's not a lot of things better than watching Iowa blow out the Huskers while drunkingly eating Runzas.
Couple thoughts on this topic. When I go by myself I never buy anything. I understand if you go to a game you’re going to get gouged, but I hate paying out the ass for stuff I can get for a fraction elsewhere. However I go with my son and he always has to get things. The shitty thing about the pretzel is that you have to pay $2 extra for the cheese.
About 7 or 8 years ago I sat next to an old lady at Hilton in Ames at an Iowa ISU wrestling meet. She told me she had worked at Carver Hawkeye in the concessions dept. She said everything you’ve heard about the food is right. The popcorn might have been popped two games ago. And the Brats and Dogs were often cooked and if left over, they just wiped them down and served them at the next event. ENJOY!

Food out on Melrose is cheaper and much better.
Hot dogs. They are toxic before they are cooked. So much preservatives in them they will be here many years after humans are gone.
Eh I usually go park and hang out on the Coralville strip.

Steak sandwich on melrose is awesome!
Glad to hear so many are supporting the athletic dept. buying so many food items. Water seems to be a big item and lots of ice cream...Still, we do support the Hawks by going to the games and parking....
Whatever the official beer is when they let consumption commence. They have a damn Coke contract, so I am guessing it will be a crappy beer.
I miss the pizza dude that used to be there. Large slices and good stuff after a game.
Melrose Ave ribeye sandwiches and if you catch the right guy they will double up the ribeye to get rid of them after the game. Soft serve ice cream at carver is about only good buy after programs. All good for the dunlap disease. haha
Hotdog to try and soak up any booze usually. Never thrilled with the stale pretzels but never stops me from buying one.
Full disclosure, I’m also one of the guys who enters the men’s room via exit door when open. Rain down your hate.
