Sports Fans Nosh on Kosher Grub
Kosher fans at Florida Panthers games will no longer have to suffer through hunger pains as they watch their favorite hockey players scuffle on the ice. Earlier this week, the BankAtlantic Center in Sunrise, outside of Fort Lauderdale, began offering kosher food from a pushcart vendor. Potato knishes, hot dogs, kosher sausages, peanuts and soda are among the snacks being sold, according to the South Florida Sun-Sentinel. At left, Florida Panthers’ Olli Jokinen in Sunrise.
Hello, fellow Forward reader! I’m Joel Brown, a Forward reader and supporter for more than 15 years, and currently the chair of the board of directors.
I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
The Forward is committed to bringing you unbiased, nuanced Jewish news. From my position as board chair, I see an exciting future as we expand our position as the definitive independent voice of contemporary American Judaism.
