Food at regionals?

[MikeDubreuil]

I went to the BAE regional in Manchester, New Hampshire.

Water sold for $3.00 a bottle by the vendors. Occasionally the pit anouncer would tell everyone that you could get a free bottle of water from him. I only remember this happening once. The second time he announced water avalliable, he actually meant water was avaliable for volunteers.

Here's my real complaint...
IF WE CAN'T BRING FOOD OR DRINK IN, THEN SELL IT TO US!!!!!

The vendors stopped selling food and drink at about 3:30. Just lovely when you're at the event until 8pm. So a thousand people are expected to use a half dozen water fountains? And starve for almost 5 hours.

The event organizers could at least go to the bargaining table with the Verizon Wireless Arena people about the hours of food service.
