We would kill each other.

Yes. I hate sitting through a 4 hour football game and not having alcohol if I dont sneak it in.

I don't want to go to an LSU game where they sell beer

The SEC should drop the universal rule and let the individual university decide.

It would help stop binge drinking but highly doubt it

There will be no difference in atmosphere. LSU might just make more money.

selling beer might actually curb drinking for some at LSU games.

Why not? everyone is already drunk anyway

Absolutely, it'd be a win-win for everyone.
-Everyone who thinks that people aren't getting hammered in the stadiums already is kidding themselves. By not having any other options, your hard drinkers only option is to bring liquor inside with them. So people will get drunk all day, obviously, then continue to drink liquor thorughout the game, as much as they brought in. It is my belief that drunk driving/other alcohol related accidents would go down if they sold, because people wouldn't bring in liquor as much. Obviously you'd have to have a cutoff, say end of the 3rd quarter. But I imagine people are going to be less impaired by continuing to drink a few beers during 3 quarters than if they continued to drink liquor for 4 quarters.
-The schools win because obviously, there's massive profit to be made.
-It's not like this is a foreign concept. Pro sporting events have sold alcohol for ages.
-The reason I presume they don't at college games is because theyr'e amateurs (which doesn't stop the sale of alcohol at bowl games btw). But I mean, we're now on the verge of paying them anyway so that goes out the window.

If this happened, to me nothing would be different, I bring in alcohol every game so I wouldn't miss a beat. For all the visitors, it would be your night from Hell.

Well if it would happen then how would the lines be?
At the Deontay Wilder fight at Bartow Arena you had to do the following:
1. Show your ID to say that you were at least 21 and get a wristband
2. Buy beer tickets for $# per ticket
3. Get in line and buy beer with ticket

Not necessarily. Students sneak in booze. Your 35-50 year old fans typically do not.

I went to the UNF basketball semi-final and final game and they sold beer. It was freaking awesome. I think the SEC should sell alcohol and if you are an arse, you give up your right to come to the games for a period of time.

unless you are an LSU fan (they will actually take this as a compliment)

Yes. Adults attend the game and should be allowed to partake in adult activities.
