I work concessions at ISU home football games. Our stand is the BBQ stand on the west side, where the visitor section is located. I typically run the grill, which consists of two flat coal tables on wheels that we set up in the open area between the men's and women's restrooms. Here's something I've never seen before. From the time the gates opened to roughly 5 minutes after the game ended, at no time was there not a line for the men's room. Most of that time, the line extended about 50' outside the building. By contrast, the women's restroom rarely had a line and when it did, there were probably only 10 women waiting to use it. I thought I was in some sort of bizarro world.
Conclusion: Out of the estimated 55,000+ fans at the game, 50 of them were female.
