Soon, you will be able to enjoy a cold beer at Kroger Field — including one that you’ve purchased from a concession stand. Two sources tell KSR’s Matt Jones that UK Athletics will allow beer sales this fall at Kroger Field. An official announcement is expected this week.
The decision comes after the school tested alcohol sales at baseball and home games this spring. After fans set attendance records at Kentucky Proud Park during Kentucky Baseball’s NCAA Tournament Regional without issues, the decision was made to expand alcohol sales to football. For now, no decision has been made about other sports, including men’s and women’s basketball games at Rupp Arena.
