Drone me some peanuts and cracker jacks: Frustrated fans ready for new stadium tech paid Oracle
Frustrated with long concession lines, fans who attend live sports events are willing to try a range of technologies to speed their food and drink purchases—and even spend more money if the process were to become more convenient, according to a new survey byUS fans already spend an average of $42 per game on food and beverages, according to the survey, and 52% say they would spend at least $10 more if their wait times were cut in half.
For example, the NBA’s Milwaukee Bucks lets fans at its new Fiserv Forum order a beer from their seats via its mobile app, using the “Coors Light Beer Button”—adding a sponsorship opportunity along with the fan convenience.Nearly 30% of fans globally ranked being able to stay in their seats as the most important way to improve their food and beverage experience. It’s a particularly important option for fans of sports, like soccer, with minimal break times.
Some stadiums around the world—including Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, Friends Arena outside of Stockholm, and Tropicana Field in Tampa Bay, Florida—already are going cashless, accepting only credit/debit cards, mobile payment, or loaded-value cards. Among respondents to the Oracle survey, 66% of German fans, 56% of Australian fans, 53% of UK fans, 45% of Canadian fans, and 44% of US fans say they expect stadiums to be cashless within five years.
Adding to the complexity is the fact that most sports facilities are used for other kinds of events—concerts, civic functions, religious gatherings—each with different vendors, patrons, and employees, Oracle’s de Montfort Walker explains.
