Stadium Wide Beer at Folsom

I'll be very interested to see if/how they police bringing it into areas that are supposed to be the student section. Folsom is wonderful because there's so little restriction on where you can or can't walk/sit. But overall this is a great development.
 
It only took 20 years to figure out that banning beer sales did absolutely nothing to curb alcohol consumption in the stadium. I guess that’s progress. I seem to remember saying it was a stupid idea at the time. They never listen to me.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten_Cent_Beer_Night

Ten Cent Beer Night was a promotion held by Major League Baseball's Cleveland Indians during a game against the Texas Rangers at Cleveland Stadium on Tuesday, June 4, 1974.

The idea behind the promotion was to attract more fans to the game by offering 12 fluid ounce (355 ml) cups of 3.2% beer for just 10 cents each, a substantial discount on the regular price of 65 cents, with a limit of six beers per purchase but with no limit on the number of purchases made during the game.[1] During the game, fans became heavily intoxicated, culminating in a riot in the ninth inning which caused the game to be forfeited due to the crowd's uncontrollable rowdiness and because the game could not be resumed in a timely manner.[2]

Question, because idk, why did they get rid of the beer sales in the first place? Too many minors getting ****ed up, when they'd find a way to regardless, or what?

I can't answer for certain, but I am sure it was associated with the move to "clean up" CU's image. The admin wanted to get as far away from the party reputation that CU has had in the past.
