“The awesome crowd at Saturday’s inaugural AAF game exceeded everyone’s expectations, but unfortunately that also meant long lines for food and beverages," said Patricia Muzquiz Cantor, Director, Convention & Sports Facilities Department. "We’ve directed our concessionaire to add more staff and stands for the next game. The Alamodome is thrilled to be the home of the AAF Commanders and is committed to creating an enjoyable experience for all fans.”
The Alamodome also posted a response on its Twitter account, saying it will add more staff and concessions for the next game, which is Sunday afternoon against Orlando.

The Commanders inaugural AAF game received mostly positive reviews from fans in attendance.
Many were happy with the experience and atmosphere at the game.
But others took to social media to complain and voice their frustrations with the concessions.
Lines are so long at the @alamodome that the beer vendors are abandoning the stands and just selling beer to people waiting in line for beer.
