Post #4498 I usually don't complain but today I have to for people's safety... Reply

________________________________________
The consession stand on the East Upper (North Side) sells the "crappiest" food and drink, I've ever eaten or drank anywhere. I was forced to partake of their cuisine yesterday and I'm truly worried for my health today and I am not feeling that good.

First of all, my daughter and I purchased two of the tiniest drinks they had and the only side item we got was nachos-and-cheese. The drinks were so syrupy they were almost undrinkable, chips were stale, and here comes the worst part - the ice stunk like toilet water. When my drink was finished and there was nothing left in the cup but ice, I started smelling something very undesirable. Everytime I lifting up my drink, I kept thinking the guy in front of me was "breaking wind" but after about 2 or 3 times doing this, I discovered that the stinking smell was coming from my cup of ice. The ice never looked clear and I don't want to even think about what was wrong with it.

I will NEVER/EVER buy anything from inside WB again unless it's bottled with a cap that hasn't been broken or food that's been sealed and not been opened.

I truly felt like I needed to get the "word" out about this.

You need to contact the Ath. Dept, or maybe even the Board of Health. That kind of thing could sicken thousands. May be a lot of mold growing in the ice makers or something. If they aren't used much during the rest of the year, it could happen.

They said they thought the guy in front of them was farting too! But it was the cup or the ice... Someone seriously needs to look into that, bc it seems like it wasn't an isolated problem. They got their drink from the north stands' under the student section.

my girlfriend said she kept smelling something and she was drinking a fountain drink too. Then, my friend later quit drinking his drink because he said it stunk. This really may be a huge and potentially dangerous problem.

I had the strange ice as well. I noticed something wasn't right at the time.

A friend of mine works for a company that does some work at Williams Brice.

He has told me for several years now that USC doesn't give a rip about the fans for what goes on behind the scenes there as far as maintenance, food, etc.

I don't mean for my laughing to offend but you have to admit, it's just hilarious to think about it. I don't think anyone that's ever been to another sporting event than a Carolina football game will disagree that our stadium is an absolute rat hole. The bathrooms are totally rancid and disgusting. The concession areas and breezeways beneath the stadium are filthy. The walkways are all in need of major powerwashing. It's just not a nice place at all. Once inside the stadium, it's one of the best but judging everything together, the place should be condemned...

Having close ties to DHEC, let me explain a few things. That "###" smell you got a whiff of is either sulfur (which public water is NOT supposed to have in it) or Sewage. I think there could be a possible cross connection between the potable water pipes and the wastewater pipes somewhere. With all of the addons tot he stadium over the years and the lack of codes when it was first built, it would not be entirely out of the realm of possibility. I am also not sure if the concession stands are permitted by the state. If not, they need to be. A dirty ice machine can be more of a hazard then the cross connection under the right circumstances. If the ice comes from a plant, find out which one. Don't complain to DHEC, complain to USDA or SC Dept. of Ag. (trust me on this one). I am almost certain DHEC stopped doing Ice Plant inspections several years ago and the feds took it over. Also, if you think that there is a cross connection, call the local EQC (Sister agency of DHEC) office and complain. They monitor the public water systems and take samples on a regular basis. They could go in and take a sample and run it for fecal coliform and that would solve the problem if there is one. If it is high, then either the water system has poop in it (HIGHLY unlikely) or there is a cross connection. The EQC number for Richland County is 803-935-7015. Just tell the person who answers what the nature of your complaint is and they will put you through to the right person. Good luck.

Yup, my wife and I had "crappy ice" as well. We were sitting in Sect. 9 (West Lower). Glad others thought the ice smelled like crap, too. It really sucks that you have to pay $2.50 for a SMALL coke only to have your ice lased with fecal matter. Something should really be done about this!

"Sign below if you don't like feces in your drink"

Really though, guys, that's really disgusting. That's two places I won't be eating/drinking ever again. The other is Rockaways on Rosewood. A roach fell from the ceiling there and hit me in the head. Before I realized it was a roach, it had crawled onto my arm and then my leg. It was pretty rough. I'm not worked up by bugs but this one was actually ON ME!
