    Bunk and Qdoba are great choices.

    Qdoba is a million times better than overrated chipotle.

    When I went to the GS game last year I had an amazing pulled pork sandwhich on the 100 level.. can't remember the name of it, though!

    I nominate the Hawaiian food cart near A5. Although they got stingy on their portions towards the end of the season.

    A shoeshine service! I haven't seen a row of those chairs since the Fifties in Cincinnati. Portland must be more racist than I thought.

    The Blazers have had one in the Moda Center since it opened. It was on the main concourse but it was moved up to the 300 level last season.

    Really? In the days when men (and women and kids) wore shiny leather shoes, my father would say, "Those are the shoeshine boys." Each squatted next to his chair, rag in hand. If you so much as looked at him, he'd jump eagerly and look at you like you were God and eagerly ask whether he could shine your shoes, as if you were granting him a great favor.

    I guess they didn't care for repeat business. I talked to the owner and they lost their contract at the Rose Garden as they are not allowing any outside vendors in.

    You haven't negotiated your fees, which grant you privileges like the ability to talk to other rookies. The other guy paid, where are you? Get your credit card and PM me at once.

    Uh how about not eating at the Moda Center.... Price is ridiculous. I don't eat there not out of cheapness, but out of principal... Unless of course I go with my buddy whose wife works there and gets us half off shit.

    A principal is the head of the school, and he's your PAL. Principles are what you hold dear, and you would be moralless without them.

    Yeah, you got me. I didn't spell/grammar check before I hit enter. Now let me be clear, when I am on official business I'll maybe give it a once over, but for an online message board I could give two shits. ;-)

    Thanks for the grammar bump though. lol.
