Though no formal start date has been announced, stadium-wide beer sales should be instituted next month.
The Penn State Board of Trustees voted 28-5 Friday to approve a plan to offer beer sales to the adult fan base during Nittany Lion home games and other stadium events. No formal start date was given Friday, though Athletic Director Pat Kraft has said in the past that with trustee approval beer sales could begin as early as the scheduled home game against Northwestern on Oct. 1.
Kraft said reasons for the open beer sales plan include providing “a significant enhancement to fan experience and game-day atmosphere.” He told trustees that in the most recent fan survey about Beaver Stadium improvements, it was a feature most respondents said they wanted to see. Five trustees opposed the plan, mostly out of worry about negatively impacting the game-day experience for families with children.
“This is the best advertising that we could ever hope for, and clearly it has served us well. We have done all of this without the sale of alcohol in the stadium,” Detwiler said. She noted fans who want to drink can still do that before and after the game outside the stadium. But, she concluded, “selling beer in the stadium will have a negative impact on the game-day experience for families.”
