Dialing for a dog

Posted: June 15th, 2003 | No Comments »

No dishing out cash and no carrying back four hot dogs and four sodas to your seat! In-seat ordering of food and drinks via web-enabled cell-phone is being tried out at Safeco Field (home of the Seattle Mariners). More: “Dialing for a dog and drink from the seats at Safeco Field“. Some non-nerdish minds oppose to this new way enjoying a baseball game “I would never use this. You’ve got to get up once in a while” :-)

Notice people working in professional sport franchises have titles like “vice-presidents of technology”. The Mariners also offer interactive games for some cell-phone users at Safeco.
