Extra revenue that can be used to reduce ticket prices and donation requirements. Encourage folks to get in early and fill the seats rather than linger at tailgates.

Jon Dobbs

Unfortunately, it will create a louder environment for game day. Will generate more revenue which could be used to off set ticket price and off set scholarship increase expense.

I dont see why a responsible football enthusiast cant enjoy a beer at a game. Beer is sold at plenty of family restaurants and I dont think it tarnishes their brand . So yes, absolutely sell beer.

Joel Thornton

The selllout streak will end without it.

Marcus Dietz

I think the added revenue (by charging a premium for a beer vs. a soda) would be beneficial to the University.

Bill Gondring

raise funding for the university. It is an additional fund raise

Gordon Sherman

Duh

Curt Koelling

people drink plenty before and after the game.

Robert Phillips

Just check the idiots in Folsom stadium in Boulder Colorado and you'll find your answer.

Chris Rudeen

it would turn is into a Boulder, CO or Columbia, MO crowd. Who wants that?

Bill Lamson

We don't need more people getting drunk and idiotic inside the stadium, there are enough of them outside. Keep them there.

TRACY NELSON

I hate sitting next to somebody and have to put up with his beer breath among many other reasons

Khrys Maxwell

There is no need for alcohol to be sold at Memorial Stadium. While Nebraska has great fans, I think that the access to alcohol could make for quite a few rude people.

Richard Barnes

Huskers fans are #1; Drunk Husker fans are #2(if you know what I getting at).

Jake Chalupsky

NFL games are full of drunks. Keep Memorial Stadium a place where you can bring your kids and not have to worry about drunk idiots stumbling and saying stupid stuff.

Natalie Forch Krohn

Beer = drunk = stupid, even the "the best fans in college football" when drinking become the worst

Daniel Revas

The problem with drunks in the Stadium is already bad enough. This wil actualy discourage Families from attending games. I think it hurts the sellout streak, not helps it.

Les Kissinger

Just look at the problems Colorado had with beer sales. We don't that here. We come to enjoy the game not to have beer spilled all over us.

Karen Norden Rogers

I think it could cause fights between the two teams playing ..Meaning fans..

Arlie Rauch

It encourages irresponsible behavior.

Chris Murphy

There is enough beer to be found outside. Beer only causes more problems in the game

Bob Crockford

Some would ruin it for the others. Also, someone could get hurt. If they want to drink beer, they can celebrate after the game, or they can drown their sorrows in beer after the game, if we lose.
