Bring a Benihana receipt to Dolphin Stadium and save $10 on an Infield Box Seat at any Marlins regular season Thursday home game.
The $10-off seats are based on availability, but it's worth the chance if you're a fan of teppanyaki (aka hibachi).
Trivia: Benihana opened it's first restaurant in New York in 1964...and since 1999 Benihana has a majority share in Haru. Interesting.
Here's why the internet is so great...I was searcing for something completely unrelated to Scoreboard Gourmet and I found something on winexmagazine.com that's perfect for me (and You):
The Wine X Guide to Gourmet Eats at the Country's Tastiest Ballparks (!):
Anaheim Angels
Shredded-beef tamales.
Arizona Diamondbacks
Find the “Fielder’s Choice” farmers’ market or slurp down a smoothie. For a little less sobriety, try the Sonora and Fat Tire microbrews.
Atlanta Braves
Why brave a hot dog when there’s grilled chicken, veggie wraps, fruit and cheese plates, and fresh fruit smoothies? The park also features an upscale wine bar on the Lexus Level, with bison burgers straight from bison raised on Ted Turner’s ranch.
Baltimore Orioles
Pick up BBQ chicken sandwiches, BBQ chicken wraps, smoothies, fresh fruit salads and veggie wraps. Wash it all down with Talus semillon-chardonnay, Talus cabernet or any of 13 microbrew beers like Clipper City IPA and Wild Goose Porter.
Boston Red Sox
Sox fiends crave California rolls, grilled chicken sandwiches, and Hilltop steak and turkey tip sandwiches.
Chicago White Sox
Dine on grilled chicken breast sandwiches, veggie burgers, Italian beef sandwiches, chicken gyros, steak pitas and fresh fruit.
Cincinnati Reds
They’re playing in a new ballpark this season, so they’ve gone a little crazy at the concessions, adding smoked salmon, grilled lamb, veggie dogs and chicken rice rolls.
Cleveland Indians
Chicken fajita salads, veggie burgers, fruit salads, grilled chicken breast and salmon sandwiches and fried shrimp baskets compete for fans’ affections with the classic Cleveland treat — pierogies.
Colorado Rockies
Skip the Rocky Mountain oysters and go for New York strip steak sandwiches, veggie wraps, buffalo burgers, buffalo hot dogs and Chinese chicken salad. The park also boasts the first microbrewery inside a U.S. sporting facility.
Detroit Tigers
Bavarian cream churros — yum!
Florida Marlins
Cuban sandwiches (crusty bread toasted with boiled ham, roast pork, salami, Swiss cheese and pickles) and high-octane Cuban coffee to wash it down.
Houston Astros
Beeline for breast of chicken sandwiches, crab cakes (when the Giants are in town), fish tacos (when San Diego is the visiting team), fresh fruit juices, Vendange wines (chardonnay, zinfandel and cabernet) and local microbrews like Fat Tire and St. Arnold’s.

Thanks to the upcoming Daytona 500, Florida is on my mind. And since the Marlins play in Dolphins Stadium, I figured this post was appropriate in December (the Dolphins are home v the Ravens on 12/16; Marlins 2008 Season Tickets are on sale now).

This and every Tuesday is Dollar Dog Night at Five County Stadium, home of the Carolina Mudcats (Double-A Marlins). Tonight's game against the Mobile Bay Bears (Double-A Diamondbacks) starts at 7:15pm. If hot dogs aren't enough to entice you, how about a complete meal? Cattails Restaurant (crabcake, quail, short ribs, etc.) is inside/on top of the Stadium, and has a separate window for tickets. Good view of the field And it's air conditioned which I suspect will mean more in months to come. If anyone's eaten there, I'd love to know about it...
If the Modesto Nuts (Adv-A Rockies) score 10 or more runs in any home game, every fan in attendance will receive a free taco from Taco Bell.
Before every game, a Nuts player will be named Double-Double Batter of the Night and a section of the ballpark will be the Double-Double Section of the Night. If the Double-Double Batter hits a double during the game, the Double-Double Section can redeem their tickets at the Guest Service Counter for a free burger from In-N-Out.
Also before every game, an opposing player will be named Extreme Pizza Strike Out Batter. If that player strikes out during the game, everyone in that night's Extreme Pizza Section will win a free slice of pizza from Extreme Pizza.
These are fantastic, no? TFMJ is a big fan of the Double-Double. The real Mike Jacobs is batting .343, but that's the opposite side of the country. fyi: the Nuts were an A's affiliate until 2005. Some alum: Scott Brosius, Reggie Jackson, Jason Giambi (Jose Canseco, Mark McGuire, Miguel Tejada)
MLB: Florida Marlins
NFL: Miami Dolphins (At Dolphin Stadium - home to both fish teams - 2,000,000 beverages, 500,000 hot dogs and 250,000 bags of peanuts are consumed annually)
