Alcohol Sales in Ross-Ade Could Expand to Whole Stadium

Earlier this week, the Lafayette Journal & Courier reported that Athletic Director, Mike Bobinski, was looking into the possibility of expanding alcohol sales throughout all of Ross-Ade Stadium.

“We are absolutely considering it,” Bobinski said. “We’ve talked to lots of folks about it, we’ve talked to our concessionaire about it. We are considering it.”

University President Mitch Daniels and the school’s board of trustees have given Bobinski and the athletic department the authority to determine the feasibility of increasing alcohol sales throughout the stadium.

Currently, alcohol is only sold in the premium seating areas in the Ross-Ade Pavilion along with the South End Zone patio built in 2014 when the old Lambert Fieldhouse bleachers were torn down.
