For an NFL franchise, moving into its own stadium creates many ways to make money.
One of them involves concessions.
The Eagles announced yesterday that Lincoln Financial Field will have an official hot dog, an official salty snack, and an official ice cream. Those titles were bought from the team by Dietz & Watson (the hot dog), Utz Quality Foods (the snack), and Turkey Hill (the ice cream).
For their money, amounts undisclosed, the companies will have their products sold exclusively at the new stadium and their logos displayed on signs throughout the concourses.
In addition, all three obtained the right to use the team logo and colors in Eagles-themed food products for sale to the general public.
Utz plans a limited-edition, one-pound Eagles commemorative bag of potato chips, due out next week.
