Will new operator mean better food at Sprint Center?

With names surfacing of potential companies that could buy entertainment giant AEG, Kansas City foodies should be crossing their french fries that it ends up being the owners of Madison Square Garden.

Charles and James Dolan, whose MSG management company has done wonders with the food at Madison Square Garden, are cited as potential buyers.

I’ve said before that Sprint Center currently offers the worst food options of any Kansas City sports and entertainment venue, lagging far behind the offerings of Kauffman, Arrowhead and Livestrong. The fact that our major downtown attraction lacks great food and drink from quality local vendors and chefs is appaling.

Madison Square Garden on the other hand provided perhaps the best sporting event food feast that this hungry girl has ever tasted. The Knicks games taste far better than any professional sporting event I’ve attended!

I know there’s more for Kansas Citians to consider when it comes to a new operator for the Sprint Center, but if this foodie has a vote – I want someone who knows the sport of great cuisine.
