Reminder: Saturday's UNI football game will be first with beer sales

CEDAR FALLS -- After a long process that stretched from concession personnel all the way up to University president Mark Nook, Northern Iowa announced Tuesday it will begin selling alcohol at home football and men's basketball games during the 2019-20 season.

Beer will be on sale on the concourse beginning Saturday when the Panthers face Southern Utah in the 2019 football season home opener.

"We always look for ways to improve our fan experience and have the best game atmosphere possible. We are excited to provide this new amenity to our fans," Director of Athletics David Harris said.
