Gross or not gross? Depends on if you’re asking ESPN or vendors at DFW pro-sports venues

Try to keep that hot dog you ate in 2017 at Globe Life Park from coming up, or that helping of nachos from American Airlines Center in 2016.

Things might not be as bad as they seem.

An ESPN report ranked those DFW sports venues among the worst in professional sports in terms of cleanliness of their concession stands and other food area. Those in charge at the venues, though, say they aren’t quite as bad as the report makes them out.

ESPN gathered health inspections from 2016 and 2017 after 111 venues in North American, and Globe Life Park, home of the Texas Rangers, and American Airlines Center, home of the Dallas Mavericks and Dallas Stars, ranked third-dirties in MLB and the NBA and the worst in the NHL.
