N.C. Senate OKs beer, wine sales at university stadium sports events - Transic_nyc - 06-18-2019 06:40 PM Continuing the trend seen in other states, now North Carolina wants to join the list of states allowing alcohol sales during college events. Please note that its not final, yet. The governor has yet to indicate whether he'd support it. Quote:Sen. Chuck Edwards, R-Buncombe, said it is likely that East Carolina University, N.C. State and UNC Chapel Hill would be early adopters of new or expanded sales. Appalachian State University, N.C. A&T State University and UNC Greensboro have had athletics department personnel at previous committee meetings on HB389. https://www.journalnow.com/news/local/n-c-senate-oks-beer-wine-sales-at-university-stadium/article_249ce0a5-528e-54db-bd18-7b29f427ae9b.html RE: N.C.

This is good news and hopefully puts the pressure on the folks in my neck of the woods to do the same. RE: N.C.

Charlotte's Board of Trustees has already passed a plan to sell beer this year at football, basketball, soccer, and baseball games. RE: N.C.

Senate OKs beer, wine sales at university stadium sports events - Wolfman - 06-30-2019 01:47 PM Fans are not going to get drunk on $8-$10 beers in the stands. They are going to get drunk on the kegs and cases they brought with them. Some schools already sell alcohol in private/sky boxes. I don't know how this got around the law but it did. Duke is private so is not retrained by these laws. They have sold alcohol for a while but restrict it to higher level boosters. RE: N.C. Senate OKs beer, wine sales at university stadium sports events - ShoreBuc - 06-30-2019 02:12 PM Happy to see this as an out of town Pirate who does not always have time to arrive in time to tailgate all day. If I am driving the 5 1/2 hours and have just enough time to get to the game maybe and hour before or closer it would be nice to have the option to buy a couple $8 beers. As a Pirate Club member I always have the option to walk the 50 yards out of the stadium to my parking spot, grab a beer out of my car and then go back into the game but it would be nice to sit back and relax with a cold beer and watch ECU Football and having that option at Baseball and Basketball games is a no brainer RE: N.C.

Also if it's stupidly hot out it's a pretty damn refreshing way to keep drinking. RE: N.C.
