For a day on the field, usually I bring along a large sandwhich, 1 qt of water, large 1 gal jug of Gatorade, and a few Cliff Energy Bars. If my group orders pizza, I'll chip in for a slice.

What do you guys eat for lunch when you go play? Do you usually eat the food the field provides (pizza, hotdogs and soda/water), do you bring your own meal or do you have something delivered to the field (pizza and soda)?

While at the field, I always bring a gallon of water and a few Nature Valley peanut butter snack bars. And then its a tradition for us to go to Zips thats just down the road before I head on the 2 hour drive back home...

A good mix of water, gatoraid and Monster gets me through the day quite well. Sometimes we eat stuff we find laying around in the office or conex; day old pizza, month old cherrios, you know, the good stuff. Sometimes we may order fresh pizza if the old stuff is too old.
Meh...its not gourmet but it gets a few of us by. We're poor, what do you expect :p

No eat ....Must play!!!!


I rarely eat during a normal day of play.



For big games, have grill will travel, usually burgers, brats, dogs, grilled pork loin, etc.

I haven't done it for a while but I used to take pasta bowls the kind with the sun ripened tomatoes and mushrooms etc in. I really don't know if the deli counters in the US do these, I haven't noticed any when I have looked, but here you can buy a 'Premium' store branded version or the cheaper prepacked one or if you have the time the deli counter version. It is only a time thing now that I don't always do it now as our only 24hr Supermarket doesn't actually stay open on a Saturday night so I have to shop during the day...waste of sleeping time for me but I 'could' if I tried. Now I make do with the beef rolls the site gets in. Now thinking about it way too healthy but it tastes good :)

I really hope you at least mix the water and gatorade together. Otherwise, it does nothing to hydrate your body.

I take 2 bottles of water and a few energy bars. The field I play at has a hose so I am constantly filling up bottles and spraying my head to keep cool. I never get hungry when I play.

Breakfast - If I have time, Steak and Eggs at a local Denny's type place, if not, Two EggMcMuffins and Hashbrowns.

Lunch - Trail Mix Bars through the day, and whatever the field does for Lunch.

Afterplay - Beer, usually a nice pilsner from Central Europe that's easy to drink and not too filling, and something likes Brats.

All Day Long - I go back and forth between Gatorade and Water.

I'm 5'10". When I hit 28 I went from 160 to 180 almost overnight. When I hit 32, I popped up to 210. A few years later, I'm thankfully at 210.

When I was 18-19 and practicing Kenpo 20+ hours a week I was 185lbs and in far better shape than I am now.

Now I run about 20 miles a week, not near the shape I was in when I was doing kenpo. Getting kinda round. Guess I'm ok with that, not willing to stop eating at least :)

I usually don't eat before playing because with a pack on it seems to make my stomach cramp if I do eat, even a banana. But I'll drink gatorade and mostly water with occational fruit before the day starts up.
Definately wish I could eat something though, I start to drag in the afternoon if I am at a tournament and I think it's due to that.

Eat? what is that?...if we only had time to eat...well regular days of play and practice we eat whatever..usually taco bell, but tournament day we only eat breakfast..and personally i dont eat much of it bc its usually 4-5 in the am...and fast food..and i dont wanna deal with the after effects...so we just drink lots of fluids and hit up a buffet or something good afterwards..o wait last event i had a slim jim for lunch..one of the big ones...ye not a good idea...never relized how much grease where in those, i didnt throw up but my body just didnt want to swallow all the grease and i spit it all out...ehh growse...ive been to one event where they cooked hot dogs and such..that was nice because they had a little lunch break...other then that there just isnt time.

In the morning I try to get a little something to keep my stomach quiet. I bring at least 64-96 ozs of Gatorade and some water. For lunch I dont like to get too weighed down so I pick up some fruit salad or some fruit at the supermarket. Then, ritualistcally, my buddy and I hit Popeye's and fill up before going home to clean up. The pizza that the field orders in just sits in my stomack like a rock during the second half of the day. Theres also a convenient 7-11 just 5 minutes from the field. Tank up on a Double Gulp of Dr Pepper and Im good to go!! :clap:
