Food trucks in September?

Posted by mbeauparland

It's obviously a bit early to expect a truck schedule for the days of Gen Con, but does anyone know if they usually operate into September and if they'll even be operating at an age of Covid convention...?

They were still operating even in 2020, they just adjusted. Not sure why they wouldn't be operating at Gencon this year.

As for operating into September... not sure why most wouldn't operate 365 (or close to it) unless you were like an ice cream truck.

Food trucks run year round in Indy and have been out on the streets throughout the pandemic. We have food trucks at work every week and they come all year, barring bad snow.

As opposed to good snow? Lol! Where I live, a picture of snow in another country will throw everyone into a state of panic.

I looked up the weather for Sept 16-19 2020 and it was ranged from 70-80 degrees (F). I don't think there will be a temperature problem.

I hope island noodles comes into town this year.

It's the midwest; getting an accurate weather prediction a month out, let alone 90 days out, is impossible.
We could be in false fall, an Indian summer, or anything really.

With that said, unless conditions are so bad that people won't be outside, food trucks should be out.

2020. What the temperature was LAST year.

September is still summer for a majority of the month guys. The weather in September in Indiana probably the nicest all year ... not as hot as August and July, with fewer rainy days.

The only issue I see with the Food trucks will be on Sunday. Since there is a Colts game that day, Georgia Street is usually closed off for events for the game.
