Will Clemson start selling alcohol at its athletic events?

According to reports, beer is on the menu at Clemson baseball games this year. Does that mean football is to follow?

Will Clemson University start selling beer at athletic events?

According to reports, Doug Kingsmore Stadium’s former visitors’ bullpen down the left-field line is now a “beer garden,” according to head coach Erik Bakich.

“We are going to be selling beer this year, which is huge,” Bakich told USA Today.

This comes after a December post from @clemsonbarstool, which implied breaking news regarding alcohol sales. We also covered some buzz around permits posted on Memorial Stadium last June, which university leaders said were related to catering.

If this opens the door for alcohol sales at athletic events, some wonder if the ability to leave Clemson games and return could go away.

Would you give up that perk for a beer? What do you think about these changes? Sound off.
