Should Beer be sold at The Swamp?

[cajuns67]

I am not trying to take up for people who curse or anything like that, but it is their right to say what they want to say. Now on the other hand they should repect the other people around them and be concious of their enviroment.

I tend to curse a lot due to working full time in the military but I am also always concious of who is around me and try not to do so while around kids.

We have tried winning for 100 years and it hasnt worked out so well for us, so I think it is time we look at other oppertunities. LIKE BEER! HOORAY BEER!

AGREE

CajunRed, we're talking about "D1 Football" not a 5 year old birthday party. If having a beer amongst friends isn't your bag, cool; but don't take a self-righteous stance on everybody else.

Indeed... it was quite nice. It was over-priced, but very refreshing... I recall something like $7 (I think it was a 16 ouncer). They actually sold it in the stands... popped the tab on the can and poured it in a cup for you. I'm not saying we sell it in the stands (no need in pushing it in the faces of those who object). But, it would be nice to have a beer or few during the game. I would advocate they stop selling at the end of the 3Q. I would also request that the bathrooms be in tip top shape and not run out of paper towels as I believe the increased beverage consumption will have me frequenting those establishments at a slightly greater clip. I wash my hands at the completion of this task and prefer to exit the facilities with clean AND dry hands.

Cheers and Geaux Cajuns!

DaddyCajun and I both greatly appreciate your hygiene

The Houston beer is a little pricey, they were the same price at the baseball game this year. I would not mind paying for it at Cajun Field

Voted yes even though I dont drink.... we typically have 25-30k at the stadium.... but only half that number inside.... anything to bring those folks inside is a good deal to me

I never brought juice into a game but I would like ONE beer to get in gear.

There is always a way to beat the system. People are beating it now heading to the parking lot.

God bless halftime.

if it "should" be, it (would/will) be ..

Beer is not served at the stadium due to university administration. If they want to make money, sell beer.

The revenue generated from beer sales alone could offset the operation costs of a football gameday and then some. (exaggerated guess)

Not that exaggerated at all. I used modest number in calculating beer sales at Cajun Field. Lets just say we bring in an additional 5000 people into the games who drink beer on top of the 3000 people I figured in earlier. 8000 people drink 3 beers a piece at 7 bucks a pop would equal to $168,000 dollars per game. If we average that many folks and drinks for a five game season like we have this year it would bring in $840,000 bucks.
