Due to popular demand Purdue has chosen to expand beer & wine sales to more of their stadium areas (not just suites & select seating). I didn't realize that they even have beer & wine sales at their baseball stadium, Alexander Field, and other sports venues. More revenues for those who really need it. www.purduesports.com/sports/w-baskbl/spec-rel/062817aab.htmlI realize BSU would have to hire licensed bartenders to serve, but I believe that the revenue generated would more than offset that cost. Why not give the fans what they want and makes some money along the way? |

Ball State is in the planning processes of selling beer at football and basketball games. Maybe as soon as the 2018-19 season.

Apart from slow moving business matters generally, there is a little more issue with selling alcohol on campus than getting conventional beer and wine permits, and no doubt financial and insurance issues. |

If you believe that stuff takes a year to hash-out it sort of explains why you don't work in the private sector. |

But, we are not talking private sector here in any way. And this is BSU, where have we done anything like this in a big hurry? |

Seems a bit hypocritical when universities are coming down hard on fraternities and banning alcohol at their events. Hell, they're even banning frats from hosting ANY events.
Probably why it's going to take a year. They want the stink of their hypocrisy to waft away before doing this.

Instead it's about Ball State being a ill managed bureaucratic mess. |

In addition, the shoe that hasn't dropped yet for football is this...once available I've heard perhaps no pass out for halftime tailgating. Once you leave, no re-admittance. That may be a PR issue at schools like Ball State. |

That may be a PR issue at schools like Ball State. Does BSU actually allow pass-outs at halftime. I have never been to any venue where that is permitted. The paperwork for an alcohol permit generally takes about 6 weeks, but BSU can probably get it pushed through faster. |

The university already has a catering permit on site that is used for the suites and the club level alcohol sales. The larger issue would be the expansion of the permit floor plan I would guess. yes, folks go outside now throughout the game are readmitted. I'm guessing that will change once they start beer sales to the general public.

When it's time for me to pass out, I just do it. I don't care whether it's permitted or not.

Instead it's about Ball State being a ill managed bureaucratic mess. No, there will be all those issues. I think the catering permit is probably not going to be one that works when we are selling beer to the general public, for example. This will be an issue compounded by both Indiana law and BSU internal hurdles to pass, you have a point to which I referred earlier. There may or may not be any "poor management" issues, but the bureaucracy exists and just can't be rushed sometimes. This is an issue bound to be treated cautiously for the reasons cited by reality and lurkin. |
