2 Tropicana Field Menu Items Make Best Junk Food In America List

Author Geno

The Tropicana Field menu is pretty diverse. Local businesses have set up shop at The Trop. Daddies Donuts, Little Greek, Chicken Salad Chick, Central Burger, Crabby’s, and other Florida favorite food spots offer quick to go options for Rays games. Are they the foods your doctor is going to be happy about? Probably not. Who wants to eat a kale salad while watching baseball?

Peanuts and Cracker Jacks are for the old timers. We want the good stuff when we go to Tropicana Field. And a new national survey of Major League Baseball parks around the country asked which stadium has the best junk food? Of the top 10 favorite menu items, Tropicana Field was the only ballpark to have TWO unhealthy foods make the list compiled by Bet Maryland.

The 2 Tropicana Field Menu Items That Made The List

Coming in at #9 are those Sweet Pretzel Bites they serve in that plastic catching glove. You can find them at the Budweiser Porch being sold by Twisted.

But the junk food option that came just shy of winning the whole darn competition? The Pulled Pork BBQ Nachos can be found behind 3rd base at Budweiser Smoke & Pour. The Pulled Pork BBQ Nachos came in at #2 nationally right behind the Mumbo Fried Chicken Sandwich they serve at Washington Nationals games.

The 10 Greatest Baseball Movies Of All Time

  • 10: The Rookie

    I love The Rookie not only because it has ties to the Tampa Bay Rays, but it’s a great story about not giving up and to always chase your dreams no matter how old you are. 

  • 9: 61*

    I’ve probably seen this movie 61 times. For those of us that weren’t around to witness this battle. 61* shows us what life was like for Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris while they were chasing history.

  • 8: Bull Durham

    Bull Durham is a Rom-Com, but it’s also a great baseball movie with tons of baseballisms. Showing us life as minor leaguers and how far players are willing to go, to get out of a slump. 

  • 7: Major League

    Not only is Major League outstanding comedy, it has arguably three of the most memorable characters of any movie. A baseball underdog story that is an absolute classic. 

  • 6: Moneyball

    Moneyball gives you an inside look into the General Managers office of a small market MLB team and what it takes to win going up against teams that have an unlimited budget. 

  • 5: Eight Men Out

    I first watched Eight Men Out with my dad when I was younger. I enjoyed it because it was a baseball movie, but didn’t realize the significance of it. Everything in the MLB changed after these eight men. 

  • 4: The Sandlot

    I may have ranked The Sandlot a little higher than it should be, but I just love this movie. It brings me back to the days of my buddies & doing exactly what the boys for the sandlot did. Jumped on our bikes, found a ball field and just played. If you don’t like this movie then “You’re killin me Smalls!” 

  • 3: 42

    I’m sure you’ve noticed a pattern. I love history, especially when it combines baseball. But 42 goes beyond baseball and gives us a real look on what Jackie Robinson had to deal with during his baseball journey. 

  • 2: A League Of Their Own

    A League Of Their Own was almost my number one movie! I love everything about. It’s funny and there’s lots of baseball scenes. I also love history and movies that are based on true stories.

  • 1: Field of Dreams

    “If you build it, they will come.” It doesn’t get more iconic than Field of Dreams. I mean the baseball movie king (Kevin Costner) is in it. It hits you right in the feels and the MLB actually plays games at the Field of Dreams!
