    The following list is culled from inspection reports for MLB, NBA, NHL and NFL venues in the United States and Canada operating in 2009. Results based on most recent routine inspections or equivalent of a full inspection. The score is based on the percentage of vendors in violation of health requirements.

    Sun Life Stadium
    Miami Dolphins, Florida Marlins
    Vendors with critical violations: 93%
    Inspection report excerpt: In June 2009, an employee complained anonymously that small insects and other debris were blended into frozen alcoholic beverages at a stand where equipment wasn't being cleaned. When inspectors checked, they issued a critical violation for a buildup of slime inside the frozen drinks machine.

    Tropicana Field
    Tampa Bay Rays
    Vendors with critical violations: 100%

    Buffalo Sabres
    Vendors with critical violations: 8%

    Inspection report excerpt: Two critical violations for having a toxic chemical in an unlabeled spray bottle.


    Ralph Wilson Stadium

    Inspection report excerpt: In one case an inspector ordered workers at one stand to toss all hot dogs and sausages because they were too warm while waiting to be cooked.

            If you saw half the kitchens you ate at everyday you wouldnt eat there again.....

              Are these percentages based upon one visit or multiple instances?

              There's no way Chicago is as clean as Canada.

                I would never send a dish of food back to the kitchen after watching the movie "Waiting"

                    That's seriously so ****ty though. If someone can't get something right, the people putting money into the establishment that signs the paychecks have every right to send something back. God forbid someone does their job right, but that's where were are nowadays.

                        I think these are checks made at one time to all the vendors in a stadium / arena..

                        SO FLorida had about 90% of its vendors not up to par at a single inspection...

                              Why would anybody read this? If you dont know what you're getting with stadium food, you shouldn't be buying it.

                              I think it was pretty clear logically its going to be horrible for you and may have hit the ground 2 or 3 times.
                              COMING SOON...
