if this happens, i will never say a good word about buttcut or :pickle ever again

corners will likely espouse this as his support for his agenda and declare an across the board victory - ignoring his filled-in corners, club level, and other never-gonna-happen topics

A long time ago, way back in history,
when all there was to drink was nothin but cups of tea.
When along came a man by the name of Charlie Mops,
and he invented a wonderful drink and he made it out of hops.

He might have been an admiral a sultan or a king,
and to his praises we shall always sing.
And look what he has done for us he's filled us up with cheer!
Our Lord bless Charlie Mops, the man who invented beer beer beer
tiddly beer beer beer.

The Purest bar, the Fanciest Pub, the Hole in the Wall as well
one thing you can be sure of, its Charlie's beer they sell
so come on all ye lucky lads, eleven O'clock she stops
for five clock seconds, remember Charlie Mops 1 2 3 4 5

He might have been an admiral a sultan or a king,
and to his praises we shall always sing.
And look what he has done for us he's filled us up with cheer!
Our Lord bless Charlie Mops, the man who invented beer beer beer
tiddly beer beer beer.

A bushel of malt, a barrel of hops, you stir it around with a stick,
the kind of lubrication to make your engine tick.
For 40 pints a wallop a day will keep away the clacks.
Its only eight pence hapenny a pint,and one and six they tax, 1 2 3 4 5

He must have been an admiral a sultan or a king,
and to his praises we shall always sing.
And look what he has done for us he's filled us up with cheer!
Our Lord bless Charlie Mops, the man who invented beer beer beer,
tiddly beer beer beer, tiddly beer beer beer
Our Lord bless Charlie Mops!

The Lord bless Charlie Mops!

After buttchugging but before scaling the retired jerseys wall with a tape measure.

i'd assume that, like eepstein, eaglekeeper would be using a micrometer rather than a tape measure

One corner will be the Budweiser section, another Sam Adams, another Harpoon another Guinness! Open them up at least two hours prior to kickoff!

It will be funny to see how far they keep the beer stands from the student section.

I'm actually against the beer and wine sales inside the stadium. I go to watch the game and cheer the Eagles onto victory. Not looking forward to having some inebriated attendees ruin my game-day football experience by being obnoxious and picking fights. I'll be away for the FSU Friday night game so won't have to deal with that. Thankfully the ND game is a noon-time start as oppose to 8pm where some ticket holders are drinking all day and night.

I know I'm in the minority here but this is not a good decision. There could have been other ways Jarmond could have improved the game day experience, such as increasing the before and after game tailgating hours for instance.

Trust me I like beer. Beck's is my default beer and I enjoy the craft beers as well.

Hey look, an actual whale pants on EO.

Beer in stadium is not a big deal. In fact, the less of a big deal everyone makes it, the more responsible everyone will be. Part of making it not a big deal is not cracking down on tailgating either.

Overly restrictive alcohol policy encourages people to consume large quantities in a short amount of time. This is the exact opposite of what you want, whether it's students or alums.

Walk through any section of the stadium after the game, there are beer cans and nips everywhere.
