Published:
If you missed the news, the Southeastern Conference has concluded its annual spring meetings and the biggest change to come from the event involves the sale of alcohol. The conference previously had a ban on any and all sales inside SEC stadiums but now each school will be given permission to sell beer and wine if they choose to do so.
You can read more about the lift on the ban here, including all the restrictions that will come with selling alcohol.
Immediately following the news, LSU senior associate AD Robert Munson offered up this comment:
Beer available for everyone of age this fall throughout #LSU Tiger Stadium? Maybe.
"Ultimately we're going to do what's best for LSU and our fans."
