Wake Forest to sell beer and wine at football, basketball games

WINSTON-SALEM — Wake Forest University will sell beer and wine stadium-wide for football games at BB&T Field and at the Joel Coliseum in 2016-17, becoming the first Division I university in North Carolina to take that step.

Athletics director Ron Wellman made the announcement today.

In the past, alcoholic beverages have been available only in select areas of Deacon Tower, Bridger Field House and Top Hat Tavern at BB&T Field and in the Windsor Jewelers Club Room at the Coliseum.

Wellman cited the success of Top Hat Tavern over the last two seasons as one of the reasons for the stadium-wide sale of beer and wine.

stadium and Coliseum without beer and the drunk obnoxious rowdies. There are always plenty of drunks and rowdies at WFU athletic events anyway. Not against beer, just don't like it spilled on me or puked up nearby……oh well, typical life a nearly all college athletic events. Regardless of the beer being sold or not, GO DEACS! Class of '85.
