I wonder what the first lawsuit would be for if they allowed alcohol and someone was in an accident after the game. There are enough options before the game and if someone wants to sneak it in that is their business, again I think the negatives outweigh the positives. If you need a beer that bad to enjoy the game/or get through it, then stay home or at the tailgate, plenty of time to drink before.
How so?there is zero chance that one can limit alchohol sales to just some wealthier patrons and forbid it to others.
You only rent beer.
If they sell beer in the stadium, access to and from seats and to bathrooms will have to be upgraded.
There's been games I've gotten there an hour before kickoff, and stayed until my section cleared, 30-60 min after final gun. And I never got up to pee. If I had a beer, I'd be falling over everyone in my row to go in and out several times during the game.
DerpOf course Moos wants liquor in the suites. That way he’ll blend right in.
TO doesn’t even condone medical marijuana. Giving the suites ‘legal’ alcohol at Memorial Stadium? I see that as one heck of PR battle between Moos and Ozzie.
LOL if they can make a cow look like a steak.Beer goggles might make the Iowa cheerleaders look better..............might.
A decade ago, the number of top-tier Division I schools selling booze to the masses at their football games was less than a dozen. Heading into the 2018 season, 52 out of 129 Football Bowl Subdivision programs have turned on the taps at either on- or off-campus venues, national media reports and additional Des Moines Register reporting shows.
Pollard further touted a family-friendly niche in a 2015 TV interview, and he said looking at gameday police reports showed him there were “enough idiots that do things that make you go ‘My gosh, what were they thinking?' And to put on top of that alcohol throughout the stadium would get rid of any moral high ground."
We’ve polled just about everybody, and the under-40 fan expects phenomenal food and drink at every experience,” Jones said. “You better have that. The old days of popcorn and hot dogs, if you want that young crowd to come, are gone. Younger adults are economizing on everything but food and drink.”
So it makes sense that culture-conscious schools with big budgets and bigger profiles take steps such as almost-club-level atmospheres and limited craft beverage experiences to appease that growing segment of fans. As it grows, Jones predicts more schools will tiptoe further to the edge of embracing alcohol for the masses.
Of course Moos wants liquor in the suites. That way he’ll blend right in.
