Attend just about any sporting event and the smell of the snack will be in the air, popcorn became massively popular starting in 1885 when the first steam-powered popcorn maker allowed the snack to hit the streets.

The mobile nature of the machine made it the perfect production machine for serving patrons attending outdoor sporting events, or circuses and fairs. Not only was popcorn mobile, but it could be mass-produced without a kitchen, an advantage that another crunchy snack–the potato chip–lacked (the earliest potato chips were made in small batches in kitchens, not ideal for mass snack appeal). Another reason for its dominance over other snacks was its appealing aroma when popped, something that street vendors used to their advantage when selling popcorn.

No doubt about it popcorn and sports are like a hand in glove.
