to the foolish drunks. It only takes one dumb #### to make everyone miserable. It only takes one dumb #### to throw up in the stands or on someone to make the day really bad.

As crazy as it is to say his win loss record only trails Nick saban (only counting active coaches). .743 with a total record of 292-107-2 is not bad at all, but all that being said all of those wins and no trophies or championships lol.

I really don’t think anything will change much.
The beer they are selling is not even good, AND it’s overpriced.
I think people will still binge on the good stuff outside the gates.

It's been charted many times over at other places and the results have been the same at those places but they refuse to allow all the trouble it causes to stand in the way of making all that money from the sale of alcohol!!!

So are you saying that selling alcohol in the stadium will improve the situation? Why make a problem worse. The bathrooms are already littered with mini bottles.

I don’t care for in stadium alcohol sales myself but there is security all over the stadium. I’ve tailgated pre-game plenty of times and went out at halftime (before marriage)with my buds, then returned.If we lost control, I believe then and now that we,d be dealt with.

I don't see it making much difference. People have been drinking before the games, going out at halftime to drink more, sneaking mini-bottles in the stadium forever. With the price of these in-stadium beers and the time it will take to get them, I don't see that many people getting stupid drunk solely because of the new stadium beers.

I'm curious how some of you have managed to survive the road games, ACC champ, bowl games, and CFP games that have served beer forever now? I mean did you fight your way out or what?

I have personally seen more drunken idiocy at those games than at Death Valley. One UNC fan at an ACC championship game in 2015 comes to mind. A couple of times in Phoenix. One was a young Clemson fan that I talked to a couple of times and finally told him if he didn’t stop I would call the security number myself and the other was a VERY drunk and obnoxious OCryo St fan. These were at 2 different games vs OCryo St in Phoenix. The Clemson fan moved on to somewhere else and the OCryo St fan was actually removed by security (I wasn’t the one who called them) but allowed to come back after a while.

I've had drunk old guys fall on me because ... gravity.
I've watched drunk young guys chuck knuckles over who is supposed to be sitting in which seat in which section. In front of their horrified kids.
I don't really relish the idea of beer sales ... but not because it'll add more drunken a**holes to the mix. They're already there.
What I don't look forward to is having to wait even longer for that tasty overpriced under-cooked hawt dawg because of all the beer drunks flooding concessions between quarters.

Folks can drink in at the tailgates and take a shot before kickoff then drink at halftime so getting drunk only because you can buy a beer at the concession stand is probably not going to happen.
If you come in sober you'll have to hang out at the concession stand to have cold beer. Why not go to a bar and save a ton of money if you're not going to see the game?
Maybe, I don't get it.

I don't mind drinking and such but I didn't take my kids to a football games until they were old enough to notice how foolish those who get drunk in public look.
I don't demand people be like me and I don't care if you risk your life drinking in public.

People have been getting hammered at games for years. The availability of $8 beers in the stadium will have absolutely no impact on that.
