What school will be the first to sell at games?

I know a few already do in West Va, La-Laffy, Houston, Memphis,

Anybody know any others who sell at football games.

Not in general admission seating, club seating yes, but other SEC teams do the same.

Rumor is the SEC has rules against GA beer sales.

No dont think so.

Even though LSU seems like the obvious answer i dont think it will be us. I'll go with A&M or Missouri.

After witnessing a fan throw up over a rail in the south overhang in Tiger Stadium on to fans below at Bayou Country Superfest, this will be a huge mistake. But then again, if you can drink responsibly in the stadium and curtail any underage drinking I think it's a great idea especially for baseball.

it is a sec agreement if I remember correctly not to sell alcohol in general admission, it is overlooked in premium seating of course.

It takes a lot of beer to make people throw up and selling it for $6-10, no one just carries that much into a stadium.

First the difference between club and GA is the club level is somewhat consider your private area

As far as the rules, here is the confusing part. For many years, it was hinted both ways, rule and gentlemen's agreement. Then two years ago an official came out and said it was just a gentlemen's agreement, then this year an official comes out and said its a rule. So who the frick really knows

Indoor and outdoor club seating will have beer sales at Razorback Stadium this year.

So, I'll be drinking during games for the first time legally in my life.

The Superdome also serves liquor, which would never, ever happen in an SEC stadium

I attend ULL football games and they sell beer and cut it off in the 3rd quarter.

I think the difference is before you actually bought it from the caterer who stocks your area, now the school/stadium itself is selling(I may be wrong)

Half of our premium seating was suites, which has BYOBar policies.

I never knew other stadiums actually sold alcohol to fans. We are finally starting that.

I don't want AU or UA to sell beer. We take football too cereal, and both fanbases tend to attract national news. Not good for the state.

yes LSU has always sold beer in their club levels.

suites = stock yourself
stadium club = buy from vendors
