Stay Classy UT (Stop the alcohol sales!)

  • by: Jack Smith
  • recipient: Alcohol sales inside the stadium

Since people can drink as much as they want before entering the stadium (and often do), there is no need for the sell of alcohol inside the stadium. Allowing people to drink in the stadium will likely cause more profane and abusive language when our team is losing, resulting in fans throwing more objects on the field. As a result, players, cheerleaders, and other personnel will be at a higher risk of being injured from said objects. Again, what good could come from it? If a person wants alcohol, have it before entering the stadium.  In addition, other illicit behavior may result from the alcohol consumption which may lead to UT being on the news for things that would not make our school look good. The football games should be a family-friendly environment, and no one can argue that alcohol brings the best out of oneself. Although underage drinking is imminent, by selling the substance inside the stadium, UT will become much more liable than if it were to stay outside the stadium. I strongly feel that the selling of alcohol is not out of the best interest from the university but rather out of the best interest to make an uber amount of money. This has greed written all over it and I am afraid that only a very tragic story and a week of being on the news will be the only way for the leaders of the university to see their mistake.
