“Anybody who thinks there isn’t alcohol at Mountaineer Field is either naive or blind.”

After an eight-minute presentation and a 24-minute discussion, the West Virginia University Board of Governors voted in favor of allowing beer sales at campus sporting events.

But they did ban smoking in public areas of the stadium, so you know they mean well.

    What about sofa burnings or is that included in the smoking ban?

    Bouncers? Oliver need look no further than Dana for some good recommendations.

    The distinction is between the store-bought kind and the kind you make up in the woods behind the outhouse at home.

    If they’ve got a home game on our open date, I am seriously considering going up there just to see this. Then again, Mountaineer Field will probably have already burned down by the time our open date rolls around…

    The biggest thing they accomplished is to make boilermakers the drink of choice at WVU football games.

        Well, there is such a thing as too much. Late 70’s, the bar at the hotel corner of Lumpkin & Broad, across from North Campus. They had one they called “The Old College Try.” I gave the old college try to one too many. It was one of those occasions you wake up mid-day and feel lucky to be alive and worse than death at the same time.

    Paranoid idiots. Now they can use the beer to extinguish the sofa fires.

    By far, the worst game-day fan base in college football.

    I’ve been to every SEC venue, most ACC venues, a few BigEithers, etc.

    Those folks present everything bad about a home fan base.

      They really must be something if they can top the LSU home fan base.

      Can’t speak for the folks in Morgantown, but I can say that I’ve been everywhere in the SEC except for Baton Rouge and Gainesville, and I’ve never seen any group of people more vile than the good people of Boulder, Colorado (after the game, not before it).
