Absolutely for playoff and neutral site out of conference games. It should be allowed for all games.

Are you sure? I'm pretty sure I got beer at the 2012 SEC Champ game. Maybe it was one of the chic fil a kickoff games. I can't remember.

The only beer sales at the SECCG are in private boxes. Kickoff games allow beer so it's probably one of them

Yeah must have been a kickoff game. I think West Virginia.

That would be correct. They are by definition "nonconference" games. It's just really SEC games where it's banned, including the championship game. I'm the furtherest thing from a nondrinker, and my feeling is that the only thing added to an athletic contest by beer sales is the bottom line of the sponsors. JMO...

We bought drinks in the club section last year at SEC game but couldn't bring them into the seats without pouring them into a soda cup.

Its a mess, if you have club level seats you can buy beer and pour it into a soda cup. No one can explain the rules.

Just so you know if you happen to be in a suite the cost of a hot dog is 12.00 each and you can only order in lots of 12, and a cold case of Budweiser is $72.00. Want 24 chicken wings, a kmart blue light special at only 48.00 bucks.

Maybe those type prices are contributing to how we are seeing ticket prices drop with empty seats in big games like conference championships. I'm trying to imagine paying over a hundred bucks for a dozen hotdogs. :eek2:

I'm not a big fan of drinking at a game either. I've never had more than a beer or two. Why would I pay for a ticket and travel just to get drunk and not be able to follow the game?
