***Jack Trice Stadium/Hilton Coliseum alcohol sales thread***

They should allow empty soft sided coolers into the stadium. Then I could buy six beers before the game and keep them cold.

Drink faster

Are you anticipating them selling the beer in cans? I’d guess they are in plastic cups.

100% they will be 24oz cans.

There will be more discussion of the wait times for beer than anything that happens on the field after week 1

Prices too.

Most places I think do tall boys or 16 oz cans.

Do they not open them immediately either? I haven’t been to a college game where they sell beer, but I’d imagine they don’t want those cans to become projectiles full of beer.

I don’t know … feels kind of like the slippery slope my mother-in-law warned about when BYU started selling Coke products about 5 years ago.

All drinks will be in cans.

I see we’ve entered the “if you can’t go 3 hours without a beer or THC drink, you are an alcoholic or addict” phase of the discussion. Fun.

Are you expecting kegs or for them to pour the contents into a cup first?

They typically open them upon purchase.

Much easier and quicker for cashier to get them to the lines.

*Some* places have had issues with beers being thrown but it's been rare.

 

[ForbinsAscynt]

24 oz cans are the worst. Plastic mug and a cooler might not be a bad idea

 

[David Moss]

Are they going to magically add bathrooms too? We don't have the infrastructure for this.

I expecting it like any pro sporting events I’ve been to where they crack the can and pour it into a cup.

It’s important to stay hydrated during those early season games.

Especially those 11 am games! You can’t drink all day unless you start in the morning!

 

[IlliniCy]

I don't know if the stands between the 30s will be more full at the start of the 2nd half with this new policy, but I do know that the seats in the Sukup endzone will remain empty in perpetuity.

 

[madguy30]

The 'shaking first at cloud' crowd dumbing this makes me laugh

There's a few on here that we can assume keep themselves pure by watching this every few months.

 

[madguy30]

Club seating looks like that everywhere. It's part of the deal. Say 'Thank You' for the revenue and move on.

It's part of the deal but man, Camp Randall had such a good classic bowl look and feel and the renovation on the south side has only added to a decline in atmosphere in addition to the football program tanking.

 

[madguy30]

Every camera shot of an empty part of our stadium is a bad look for the program. Everything these days is about perception and that perception is reality.

Why can 95% of the stadium find their seat but the rich folks can't?

I know some are claiming to protest and not watch other conferences (like that will impact the SEC's finances haha) but take a look some time and you'll notice ISU isn't unique to this.

Winning is pretty much the only thing that helps perception.

And before someone brings up Oregon's uniforms, they have been generally winning for 25 years, dominant for 15+.

They're just going to do open cans like every other venue on earth. I haven't had a beer poured into a cup at a game or concert for years. Way too inefficient.

Luke Combs in Jack Trice Stadium wants to have a word with you.
