Dec. 16, 2019
COLUMBIA — University of South Carolina officials have studied the issue long enough. They believe it can work.
Pending approval from USC’s board of trustees on Tuesday, Gamecock fans will soon be able to purchase alcohol at sporting events. USC hopes to begin selling beer and wine at its arenas in January.
Board of trustees sources told The Post and Courier that approval is expected during a meeting on Tuesday, where alcohol sales is listed on the agenda to be discussed by USC’s Executive and Governance Committee. The plan is to approve the sales, satisfy all the state and university requirements and begin offering the product.
USC’s three main arenas — Williams-Brice Stadium (football), Colonial Life Arena (basketball) and Founders Park (baseball) — will be launchpads for the initiative. Other venues such as Stone Stadium (soccer) and Carolina Softball Stadium could eventually be considered. (view article) postandcourier.com
