50 states, 50 crazy-delicious ballpark foods

We scoured stadium concessions and restaurant menus from all 50 states (and D.C.), that feed fans at major and minor league games, as well as at other sports venues across the country. What we found included belly-busting burgers, ballpark brunch, doughnut sandwiches, locally-inspired dishes, fresh sushi and, of course, every kind of hot dog imaginable.
