The Tuscaloosa City Council approved a liquor license for beer and wine inside Alabama’s Bryant-Denny Stadium. Now, it is only pending Alcoholic Beverage Control’s (ABC) approval.
A few other schools in the Southeastern Conference have begun allowing alcoholic sales inside of their stadiums after the conference’s governing body lifted the ban ahead of the 2020 college football season.
Stuart R. Bell, President of the University of Alabama, approves of the decision saying, “We think it’s going to really enhance the fan experience that all our fans, at our different events, will enjoy and want to be a part of.”
Beer and wine sales would likely extend to other venues and events of the Alabama campus.
