Cleveland Browns highlight new food, upgraded technology and in house-app to elevate the fan experience
CLEVELAND, Ohio — The countdown is on to the Cleveland Browns home opener.
This Sunday marks the official start of the season, as the Browns take on the Cincinnati Bengals.
The new season brings several new offerings and upgrades to the stadium.
Browns officials are highlighting “Express Access” and its expanded efforts for fans entering the field.
The facial recognition software expedites the overall process.
The software through the Cleveland Browns official app, scans your face and allows ticket holders to move through the gates in a quicker fashion versus having to pull out their mobile tickets and wait in lines to be checked in.
The software will also be used for the newly developed “Express Beer” which allows fans to score a beverage in a shorter window of time.
In addition, the Browns have rolled out the “Dawg Tags” and Dawg Rewards programs.
Guests can pull out their smartphone, open their cameras and scan the Dawg Tag located on their seat near their cup holder.
Clicking the link will then take them to a whole page/database-style set up dedicated to Browns fandom.
It’s a one-stop shop for fan access and fun.
The page features specialized selfies, games, contests, and interactive elements that can then be projected on the jumbo-tron inside of the stadium.
Several new and updated food items are being rolled out as well this 2023-2024 season.
Must-grab items include new burgers, buffalo chicken bleu cheese mac n cheese, chicken tenders n funnel cakes, elevated nachos and the highly anticipated “Big Dawg”.
The half-pound “Big Dawg” is a hot dog wrapped in pizza dough smothered with garlic butter and served with a secret sauce.
There’s also a self-check-out option where guests 21 and older can hand-select their own beverages, beers, and seltzers and scan them on their own.

Kickoff is set for Sunday, September 10 at 1 p.m. as the Browns take on the Bengals from Cleveland Browns Stadium.

Arby’s employees ‘confused’ after store closes without warning
CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) – Workers are put up against the clock as their jobs hang in the balance.
Daundre Frazier told 19 News his work family was torn apart when the Arby’s on Chester Avenue and East 22nd Street in Cleveland was shut down without warning.
“It was Monday morning when we all found out, “ said Frazier. “It’s like we’re scheduled to work we got bills and stuff to pay and it was just a whole bunch of commotion.”
Frazier says when he came into work last Monday his other coworkers were cleaning out the store–saying they didn’t find out about the move until they came in for their shift.
Cashayliana Jones says she was supposed to be starting this week.
“I was really confused like did anyone know about this or did it come out of the blue,” said Jones.
Frazier says even though they didn’t hear about the closure until the 10th they received this letter that was written on the 6th about the closure.
Stating if they stayed and helped clean up the store they could transfer to other Arby’s locations.
But Frazier says that wont work for a lot of his team.
“Everybody who works here lives within 10 minutes, “ said Frazier. “Ubering, Lyfting, and catching the bus are gonna cost more money than they bring in for working.”
Putting people in a bind right before the holidays.
“They didn’t let us know because they didn’t think we would come in and do the cleaning duties they needed us to do, but they never gave us that option,” said Frazier.
“We could have been looking for another job,” said Frazier. That would have been the courtesy for them.”
Our team reached out to Arby’s with these concerns twice, but hasn’t heard back.
“Everybody who works here is like a family, we all treat each other like brothers and sisters,“ said Frazier. “When that happened we were all just like shocked.”
