At least the food was good...

     Take me out to the ballgame,
     Take me out with the crowd.
     Buy me some peanuts and crackerjacks,
     I don't care if I ever get back.


A lot has changed since that familiar song was written way back in 1908.  The food at Citizen's Bank Park in South Philadelphia still includes peanuts and Crackerjacks.  But there is so much more to choose from!  



Not only are there Hatfield Hot Dogs which are "frankly the best" as the slogan states, the local pork producer also provides some great sausage sandwiches.  And there are other local companies that proudly offer their products, too.  Philadelphia Water Ice, Turkey Hill Ice Cream, Chickie's and Pete's Crab Fries, and Planet Hoagies are all for sale along Ashburn Alley just beyond right field.



Former Phillies All-Star Greg "Bull" Luzinski is out there as well with a mouth watering variety of BBQ specialties including a whole turkey leg.  Along the concourse there are vendors who highlight historic Philadelphia such as the Italian Market and Elfreth's Alley.



But be sure to bring along a wad of cash.  Bottled water goes for $4.25 and beers start at $8!
