ORGANIZATIONS IN THIS STORY

Eastern New Mexico University Athletics has announced new offerings at concession stands for the upcoming football and basketball seasons. Fans attending games will see expanded food options, including jumbo hot dogs, Philly cheese steaks, and various chicken sandwiches. Additionally, beer and wine will now be available at events.

"This announcement is something I have been looking forward to for a long time," said director of athletics Kevin Fite. "We could not have gotten this done without the support of strong community input and continuous conversations with University leadership to improve our fan experience."

Sodexo, which manages ENMU’s dining services, will oversee sales and continue to introduce new menu items throughout the season. Local food trucks such as Joe's Hacienda, Dr. K Maron, and Yummi Munchies are set to operate inside the stadium during football games.

Alcoholic beverages will be sold at two locations in the stadium: the north concession stand and a portable bar near the stands. Beer selections include Michelob Ultra, Bud Light, Coors Banquet, and Coors Light. The university also plans to offer a branded beer soon, as well as seltzers and wines from local providers like Enchantment Vineyards. Rooing Hound Lager from Rio Bravo Brewery in Albuquerque will be available when possible.

Each person may purchase up to two alcoholic beverages per transaction until midway through the fourth quarter. Reentry to the stadium after exiting will not be allowed due to alcohol sales policies.

Coca-Cola has upgraded signage at concessions stands as part of its partnership with ENMU Athletics. These updates aim to make it easier for fans to view options and make purchases.

Season tickets remain available for Eastern New Mexico football’s six home games at Steve Loy Family Foundation Stadium. The first game is scheduled for August 28 against New Mexico Highlands.
