Tulane, UL-L... both Louisiana Schools that allow Alcohol at their games.

There you have it folks. It's not an NCAA or SEC rule.
It's left up to the individual school. LSU is just waiting for another SEC school to start selling it.

Alcohol is also not allowed in the general seats at Tiger Stadium, but if you sit right above those areas, in the box seats, you can drink alcohol.
"It's easier to control," said LSU Associate Vice Chancellor Herb Vincent. "It's a game management issue."
Vincent says because none of the other schools in the Southeastern Conference allow alcohol in general seating, LSU does not feel pressured to change their policy.
"It's kind of an unsaid decision that's been made among the league schools that we're not going to sell alcohol," Vincent said.
Vincent says if SEC schools start to sell it though, LSU may reconsider.
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

They would have to update the restroom capabilities before they started selling beer.

So much money they could make to offset other costs. They could also regulate it to minimize problems caused by idiots. They could put a cap on the amount sold and not sell to anybody obviously too drunk.
It really wouldn't be that hard considering the money they could make.

C'mon Mississippi State...
Take the plunge...
Just imagine every fan with a cowbell in one hand and a BEER in the other.

Alleva could alleviate any animosity toward him with this move. Hell the profits from alcohol sales could probably match the profits from turning our giant scoreboard into a billboard.

I haven't noticed anything extra crazy happening at the neutral site games that serve alcohol in general seats.
If they sold beer, I wouldn't be the only one buying beer instead of drinking liquor.

How are these fans handling alcohol consumption and LSU fans can't?

Thus : If you can't afford a suite, your to irresponsible to drink at TS. Your also not good enough to see replays of disputed calls.
LSU needs to get over this elitist BS.
LSU needs to be a trend setter on beer sales. South LA has always had a very different view on drinking. Why should we align our selves with Bible Belt schools on this matter. If visiting fans don't buy our beer who cares?

I bought all the beer I could drink in Tiger Stadium when the Saints were playing there after Katrina. The games managed themselves just fine.

I'm glad. Don't need assholes ruining the games. Plus we had two people pass out in our section Saturday.

What would they do with 4739571538 students who tried to use fake IDs, kick them all out?

Why does LSU have to wait for another SEC school to do it first?

I quit drinking at LSU games about 10 years ago. My enjoyment of the games themselves has gone up exponentially. I'm not passing judgments on anyone who feels that the need to drink is a requirement in order to have a good time, but if you need to have alcohol at an LSU football game to have a good time, then there may be something wrong with the product on the field.
