Detroit stadiums did not fare well in food-safety inspection reports

Might want to re-think eating at your favorite sports's team's home venue ... or any stadium for that matter.

ESPN's Outside the Lines released a report Thursday where it reviewed "16,000 food-safety inspection reports from health departments that monitor the 111 professional football, baseball, basketball and hockey facilities across North America."

Inspection reports from 2016-17 found that at roughly 28 percent of the venues, half or more of the food service outlets incurred a high-level violation — one that poses a potential risk for foodborne illness.

The Palace of Auburn Hills, the home of the Detroit Pistons in 1988-2017, was among the worst, ranking only behind the Charlotte Hornets' Spectrum Center.
