I can tell you even law enforcement has a difficult time with enforcement because our state ATC will not commit to clear cut guidance on issues. I know first hand an instance where law enforcement made repeated request to the state ATC and they finally gave a verbal response but refused to put anything in writing. CYA at its finest.
As far as this situation I can personally give you a similar situation. As an owner of a restaurant with a valid liquor license I could not set up and sale drinks in MY parking lot during a Mardi Gras Parade. ATC said it would require a seperate catering license and you guessed it show me the money!!
I should probably run for governor with the promise to do just three things; completely redo our liquor laws, get rid of the state income tax, and rewrite the whole code regarding firearm free zones. Most probably don't realize it but it is illegal to carry a firearm in probably 50% of city of Lafayette.
Rant over or at least paused.......
What's your restaurant?

Agree, for clarity I wasn't commenting on where they were working. So your point is, spot on.
I was commenting on "There are larger concentrations of under-21 individuals attending (college) games," Legier said"
He is not talking about young children, he is talking about late teens who could trick a vendor.
Those tween agers are not spread throughout the stadium any more than at a Saints game.
"concentrations"
He made an accurate statement that simply does not apply.

So this basically admits that they decide when and where to enforce this "law as it is written"
Bit of a straw man argument here with the "apples and oranges", but I digress.
He's making a conclusion here based on no real data; are there any studies on age concentrations for each type of event?
Even if there is, what does a higher concentration of persons under 21 have to do with whether or not the alcohol vendors check IDs and verify age, as they are required?
Again, the law is the law, except when we say so. If the true concern is underage drinking and safety, wouldn't you enforce this in a place like New Orleans? One could argue a drunk college kid is probably in more danger in New Orleans than Lafayette.
The irony is that this Legier guy doesn't enforce the law equally, as he's actually claiming is the reason for this whole ordeal, essentially, "this has always been the rule, so it should be enforced universally--but not always."
Word.

Are all payments electronic now? Or was this cash?
What if you order and pay from concessions via app and "beer vendor" delivers?

Espn gameday will likely sue for an injunction claiming they have copyright/trademark for football game hardhats
Re: Beer Vending in the stands
So it could be in the stands just as long as the hawker doesnt walk around and stays in a concession area. He could maybe tape off a small section in the stands with a table, that way those in line could still see the game
