This is gonna be interesting....

Tornadoes touching down in new areas; season is starting sooner and lasting longer, experts say

John Sergeant, chief of emergency medical services at the Naperville Fire Department, was 12 years old when he first saw what a tornado could do. At the time, Sergeant had gone to help family members in the aftermath of the devastating tornado that killed 29 people and injured 350 others in...

Wait for it...

I'm going to need to know what caused this so I can make sure I never make this mistake.

If the sequel to Cocaine Bear isn't Cocaine Hippos I'm going to be real made. I haven't even watched Cocaine bear yet, but I'm all in on a similar style movie where they tell the story of how they got there and how they try to get them out.

I uh, hate to break this to you, but they don't "let us use their name". Our chefs collaborate with theirs, and all recipes are their-chef approved, down to every detail of the preparation standards.

Now if an individual goes rogue, you have a point, but thata the exception, not the rule.

I get the collaboration part. My point was when you got pizza there until a few years ago it was called Lorenzo's. Maybe I just got unlucky the last few times, maybe it's just gone downhill over the years. All I know is there was a noticeable difference between the first few times I had it and more recently.

Thus was trippy, I guess your post got moved because we weren't talking the ball of bases.

So let me call this out first, so none of you weirdos don't try tracking me down: I don't actually work at CBP. Please don't go there asking for Starat, it'll get you nowhere. If you know my real name (ahem, @Hollywood Cannon ) and go there saying you know me, it wont get you anything for free.

That said - these things aren't always cut and dry. The ballpark typically dictates who can and can't license inside their stadiums, so its not always up to us on what we do. We have our own executive chefs who offer up fun recipes (the guy at Citi has made some fun stuff, and there's a chef who recently left Denver who has won multiple awards) that tie into GameDay events by team. Sometimes the ballpark wants the licensee, and other times the licensee wants in the ballpark. We just act as a medium - most times- between the two as thr contracted service provider. Keep on mind, most times we are working with limited kitchen sets or get stuck "re-heating" originals if its a proprietary recipe.

We aren't without our faults, don't get me wrong. But we don't have carte blanche on thsse things either.

Also, please dont talk to me about prices. That mostly goes to the ballpark, not us.

I have no idea what happened here. I didn’t move anything, haha.

Thanks for the response. Was wondering how some of that worked. And I'm sure quality control is a constant issue with any operation that large. My main issue with the pizza recently was that it just wasn't close to done enough. Could have been the exact same recipe I had years before, but again, quality control. That's a lot of boots on the ground to try to keep to a high standard. Cheers

Hahah, I was so curious how it got here, lol.

Yeah, I mean there's definitely some "who is making it" aspect here, but we do actually work with whatever "brand" we are selling to try to come up with a cost approved (on ballpark side) and quality approved (on brand side) approximation that fits into the quick-serv model where the actual workers are less skilled. Cheers!

So what is it you actually do? Behind the scenes middle man?

That's dumb. Why would anyone need to dry gas?

Right? I'd think by the time you got the dryer they Argon.

 

[Lord Defect]

That’s a thing actually with natural gas. You have to dry it before you can freeze it to store it.

Alright HF crew. I’m going out on a limb here and looking to see if anyone has gone to a monster truck rally “recently”. They’re playing the commercials on tv since it’s coming to the linc in about two weeks. My boys stand up and stare at it in awe and I’m wondering how it is and what the best experience for them would be(seating, getting to look at the trucks up close, whatever the hell else might exist that I have no idea about)

I've never been, but have some friends that have brought their kids recently. The only piece of advice I would have is to go to one that is an outdoor stadium like the Linc. They have a lot more room to roam compared to the indoor stadiums like WFC etc.

This is some professional level basking. He's facing the door so if you do anything dumb he can just life his head up, give you a look, and put it right back down. But, most importantly, check out his little hinder. He's got it turned perfectly turned so his feet are juuuuuuuuust on the edge of the shadow, ensuring that his entire body is within the sunlight.


That is a very good boy and I want to give him some ear scritches.
