Sure, there could be an uptick in public drunkenness, but doubtful at stadium pricing. Even if profits are small because of distributor costs and smaller crowds - it's still a profit. Anheiser Busch partners with the college on other things. Why not a good deal on beer? William and mary athletics are in no position to turn down any viable revenue sources.

There is some evidence that enhancements to the game day experience such as sale of alcoholic beverages might have a marginally positive effect on ticket sales as well. Extra athletic revenue is extra athletic revenue, even if it is swapped out to olympic sports (3,2,1).

To be honest, when the College banned re-entry I thought it would be to sell beer, wine, booze, etc.
