I find schools to be pretty much hypocritical in this area.
For instance, most campus' have a no drinking on campus policy. Yet come saturday's during football season it doesn't apply. While no alcohol is sold at concessions, it's bring as much on your own as you want to taligate parties.
Don't even think of having a tailgate party for baseball and let someone see you with alcohol (this is meant for adults). Football is ok.
Tailgate spots for RV's are sold on college campus' for as much as undevelped lots in a neighborhood. You can do what you wish, although everyone knows there are rules.
As long as football is big business, it's a half hearted attempt to say schools are making efforts.

Not where I go. They sell malted adult beverages by the can, mug and pitcher in the ballpark. It's a party.
Those stuffy bible belt SEC and ACC schools could take a lesson. JK
TPM......Not sure that applies to most of the SEC/ACC schools I have visited...most notably LSU.
Of course, as crazy as the Clemson crowds are maybe its best to keep booze off the menu.
At the University of Hawaii they sell 24 oz beers like its going out of style...at the concession stand!

That's strange. I've never noticed such a problem at Liberty.

Clemson fans crazy, are you crazy?
Are you talking football or baseball? Like I said, I have been to baseball tailgates and the adult stuff was hidden away, however, football, you're talking major out in the open. Maybe baseball fans are more savvy? LOLI was at FSU bb game, didn't see any adult beverages being sold there? Do they sell alcohol at college baseball games? They did sell it at the playoffs in Jax, but you had to sit in a special section to drink it.
