Good, its not like it wasn't already very present outside the stadium. Plus, the angle of the 'morality' of it was bogus anyway. There's been alcohol in the club seating areas for years and years. If you give the university enough money you can do whatever you want.

NU Regents agree to end dry spell at university athletic events — with caveats

https://nebraskaexaminer.com/briefs/nu- ... h-caveats/
CINDY GONZALEZ, The Nebraska Examiner wrote:The University of Nebraska Board of Regents voted Friday to end a longtime ban on booze sales and consumption at Husker sporting events — but there are caveats.

President Ted Carter told the board that any change related to alcohol at a particular NU campus first would need to be approved by the respective chancellor and then returned to the regents.

He called the vote to rescind a 1999 prohibition policy a “first step” and said it would bring consistency across the university system.

You mean fans won't have to get hammered in the parking lot and sober up in the game.

NU Board of Regents votes unanimously to begin a process that would allow alcohol at sporting events



It won't immediately change anything, but the University of Nebraska Board of Regents voted unanimously on Friday to continue a process that could eventually allow alcohol sales at sporting events on the university system's campuses.
