I took a tour in Denver of the Broncos stadium and they showed us where they store all the kegs. There were hundreds of kegs in that cooler with tubing coming form there to every concession stand in the stadium. The tour guide said they average about 120,000 draft beers per game. At $7.50 a beer, that comes out to and average of $900,000 per game. That is not including bottled beer.
If the Broncos can make over $1,000,000 per game in a stadium that holds 76,000 people, just think about how much money LSU is missing out on with 93,000 people.

Pretty much an unspoken rule.

If one school decides to sell it, watch the dominoes fall.

There is no SEC or NCAA policy in place banning alcohol sales at college sports. It's left up to each individual campus to decide.

Right. This applies to the regular season as stated in my earlier post. The NCAA runs the playoffs for all sports except FBS and they ban alcohol.

Again, that's why LSU couldn't sell alcohol at The Box during regional and SR.

I searched this doc for 'alcohol' and its only mentioned in the rules governing the championship games, in which it is forbidden.

My bad it mentions specifically the Equestrian Championships...lol

So no drinking and riding.

ETA
Southeastern Conference crowd control policies are in effect for the SEC Equestrian Championship and each institution should have knowledge of these policies prior to their arrival at the championship site. The following items are prohibited in the seating areas during the SEC Championship: artificial noisemakers, alcoholic beverages, banners, flags or signs larger than one person can hold and which block the view of any patron.

Must have been a suite. The champions club is off limits.

During the potential post - season tournaments, the NCAA will have jurisdiction over Alex Box Stadium. NCAA policy prohibits the sale of alcohol at any championship event sponsored by the NCAA; the Champions Club will not be able to serve alcohol during these tournaments.

Correct me as necessary but be gentle. I just read where ulm will sell beer at their home games. Isn't it against NCAA rules to sell alcohol at NCAA college games.
