What's the big deal? UC has always sold alcohol at games. So has Louisville to my knowledge.

The teetotalers and prohibitionists will raise a big stink, but after they lose this, they'll go right back to trying to lower the legal limit to 0.05. (I told everyone 10 years ago when the NTSA started mandating 0.08 that the goal was to get to 0.0 in stages over about 20-30 years, with the penalty being similar to coke or heroin. Looks like I'm being proven right)

Yeah, its getting ridiculous. .05 is like two or three beers. I do that every weekend.

.08 is fine IMO

Only bad thing is you get a few more people acting like idiots after drinking too much. There's always a couple to ruin it for the rest of us. Probably worth a shot, we should do that, might help attendance. They could probably sell corn liquor pretty cheap.

WVU made a good chunk of change selling beer at Milan Puskar last year, and actually saw a drop in alcohol related incidents...

I haven't seen the beer sales figures for basketball season. But the total figure should be well over a million bucks. It was nearly $700K for football alone...
