UK Athletics and Kentucky Athletic Director Mitch Barnhart announced a department-wide sale of alcoholic beverages at sporting events for the 2023-24 school year.
The official confirmation came from Barnhart during his annual yearly address into the state of UK Athletics as a whole.
The school made the decision in the Spring to test a pilot program by allowing the sale of alcoholic beverages as baseball and softball games, something that was seen as a test run for the potential sale of alcohol at events such as football and basketball.
Barnhart confirmed this, speaking on the success of the pilot program and lack of overly disruptive fan behavior as a key reason for the new department-wide implementation.
