NUance Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Last month the Minnesota state senate approved a bill that would allow the school to sell beer at the stadium, and that same bill was approved by the state legislature last week. All of which means that Minnesota will be the first school in the Big Ten to allow the sale of alcohol to all fans during games. "This is absolutely fabulous," said Bob Hughes, president of the Goal Line Club, a Gophers football booster organization, told the Star Tribune. "It makes it that much more of a festive experience. It will set us apart. We'll be the only Big Ten stadium that will actually have a beer garden of that nature. ... This will give people a chance to mingle and have some good football chatter right there in the beer tent. ... It was surprising that Wisconsin didn't do this years ago. The beer tents, the music is a Wisconsin thing. But we're the ringleaders." LINK I approve of this. : Quote Link to comment

Those are the only people who usually don't know when enough is enough. Quote Link to comment
