Alabama football fans go wild from the Bryant-Denny Stadium stands during the Tide's home game against Ole Miss Saturday, Oct. 2, 2021. Beer and wine sales are coming to Bryant-Denny Stadium at the University of Alabama.
Dean Argo, a spokesman for the Alabama Alcoholic Beverage Control Board, said Wednesday that the agency gave approval to an alcohol license for the vendor at Bryant-Denny Stadium. The state approval was the final regulatory step in authorizing sales. A spokeswoman for the university’s athletic department did not immediately return an email seeking comment about when sales might begin.
The Tuscaloosa City Council on Tuesday approved the alcohol sales license for Levy Premium Foodservice, the university’s concession vendor at the stadium, news outlets reported. Levy representative Herbert Tesh told councilmembers that beer and wine would be sold to fans on the concourse but not in the stands, news outlets reported.
The university is seeking to join a growing number of universities selling alcohol in their stadiums on game days. Previously, alcohol was only allowed in skyboxes at the Tuscaloosa stadium.Note to readers: if you purchase something through one of our affiliate links we may earn a commission.
Those games will be riots now. Emotions are already high, now you want to toss alcohol in the mix? I'm weighing my attendance probability.
Hope they keep track of the going home accidents on the interstate out of T-town.
