Sometimes fast food cravings just can’t wait.
Or at least that was the case for someone at Wednesday’s game between the Loyola Chicago Ramblers and the Duquesne Dukes, when the game was interrupted when an UberEats delivery man walked on the floor with a bag of McDonald’s.
At 4:30 into the second half, a man in a yellow jacket wandered to the ground a few yards from Loyola Chicago’s Philip Alston, who was holding the ball. The game was abandoned at 16:10.
“Did he want to deliver the McDonald’s to someone in the square? Can we rule that out?” said one of the announcers of the game. His interlocutor confirmed that it was an UberEats logo and a bag of McDonald’s.

A few minutes later, the delivery man was again shown walking around the hall looking for the person who ordered the food.
Abby Schnable, reporter for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, tweeted that the food ended up in the right hands.
“Only at Duquesne can a guy bring food onto the pitch during the game,” Duquesne coach Keith Dambrot told reporters after the game. “Craziest thing I’ve ever seen in my life, except when I was an assistant at Eastern Michigan we had these friends of ours who were good fans. And they got the ice cream man to deliver the ice cream to the coach coaching the game, during the game. That’s the closest thing to it.”
