THE RICE THRESHER NEWS FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 1,2006
Beer
sold outside Rice Stadium
by Risa Gordon
THRESHER KDtTORIAl. STAFF
Beginning this season, beer will
be sold outside Rice Stadium for two
hours prior to home football games.
The beer will be available in a tent
called the Roost adjacent to the West
Lot stadium gate.
The concessions contractor for
Rice athletics events, Hospitality Food
Services, will manage the tent, Senior
Associate Athletic Director David
Sayler said. The revenue will be split
between the concessions contractor
and athletics, he said.
Associate Vice President of Hous-
ing and Dining Mark Ditman said the
tent will also have a grill similar to the
one at Reckling Park. Alcohol will not
be allowed in the stadium or outside
the tent due to NCAA policy, Sayler
said. Ditman said the beer will be
priced similarly to beer sold at other
Houston sporting events, although it
may be slightly less expensive.
He said the sale of alcohol will
also help the concessions contractor,
which has difficulty covering conces-
sion expenses at football games. The
contractor will also provide security for
the tent, Ditman said.
In another change students will also
be able to use Tetra points to purchase
food at the concession stand closest to
the student section.
Love is the most wonderful thing in the world.
We just want to help keep it that way.
