Tucson staple Eegees now available at University of Arizona sports events

The University of Arizona announced Monday that it will be serving Eegee's frozen treat at football and basketball games.

TUCSON, Ariz. — After the Arizona Stadium announced that it will be serving beer and wine at its facility, it was only natural to assume the offering at the stadium would get ramped up. But with help of a Tucson staple, games are going to be a lot more fun.

The University of Arizona announced Monday that it will be serving Eegee's frozen treat at Arizona Stadium, McKale Center, and Hillenbrand Memorial Stadium.

Eegee's will be joined by several other new venues coming to Arizona Stadium. Epic Café will serve up sandwiches, offering a variety of options from meat to vegan to gluten-free. BrushFire BBQ and Carole's Up In Smoke BBQ will bring tasty barbeque to the facility. Sweet Dough Co. will round things out with donut bites at the home events this fall.

There is also be one Mexican vendor added to the list. UA has not yet announced the name of the vendor.

"Our fans asked for more variety, more healthy options, and improved quality from our concessions offerings," said Vice President and Director of Athletics Dave Heeke. "I am very pleased with the new food and beverage additions and I know Wildcat fans will be too. I want to thank UA Student Unions for partnering with Arizona Athletics to make it happen."

UA Student Unions will also serve a few new options during the football season. Those items include Hebrew National Hotdogs, egg rolls, beef skewers, corn dogs, stuffed jumbo pretzels, and fresh roasted cashews, almonds and pecans.

There will also be smoked turkey legs, chicken wings, mac and cheese in a waffle cone, chicken tenders in a waffle cone, footlong Hebrew National hotdogs, Sidewinder sandwiches and fries, focaccia bruschetta sandwiches, veggie dogs, grilled cheese sandwiches and black bean burgers available at the games.
