SYRACUSE, N.Y. — The local Chick-fil-A franchise is set to begin operations at NBT Bank Stadium for Syracuse Mets games beginning Wednesday as the team hosts the Rochester Red Wings. The Mets, in conjunction with its concessions partner, Oak View Group, announced the addition in a Wednesday statement. Chick-fil-A will operate a standalone cart on the first-base side of the stadium and offer its original chicken sandwich, spicy chicken sandwich, Chick-fil-A chips, brownies, and lemonade, the Mets said. The Chick-fil-A stand will also sell water and Coca-Cola bottled beverages. The stand will operate at all Syracuse Mets games Monday through Saturday, just like the regular operating schedule for Chick-fil-A restaurants. “We are honored to be in a partnership with the Syracuse Mets and Oak View Group,” Jimmer Szatkowski, owner-operator of Chick-fil-A’s Cicero location, said in the statement. “We look forward to providing remarkable experiences to their Amazin’ Fans.” “We have been working with Jimmer and the local Chick-fil-A location for years, and this was just a perfect opportunity to expand the relationship,” Jason Smorol, general manager of the Syracuse Mets, said. “Our fans love the addition of local vendors, and bringing in Chick-fil-A is a win for our fans.”
