Stadium Ushers and Vendors

Stadium ushers and vendors working in domed stadiums or indoor arenas or other indoor sports facilities don't have to brave the elements, while ushers and vendors who work baseball games deal predominately with the heat and those who work football games need to dress warmly, as they frequently work in cold, sometimes miserable conditions. Ushers spend most of their working time standing or walking up and down aisles. In stadiums, ushers and vendors may do considerable climbing up and down stairs or tiers to seat patrons. Work can be stressful when patrons complain or when a crowd gets out of hand.

Three-fourths of all stadium ushers and vendors work part time or seasonally. The range of weekly hours is from 20 to 50 hours.
