Miami to sell beer at Yager stadium

In one of his last moves as president, David Hodge authorizes alcohol sales

By Ben Blanchard, Sports Editor

Following a lengthy process that began in early 2015, outgoing Miami University President David Hodge has authorized beer sales at Yager Stadium next fall.

The decision comes after the university sold beer in the club level of hockey games this past season to test viability at other venues. In a memo to top university officials, Hodge said that the trial run“was well received and there were absolutely no issues regarding responsible consumption.”

Hodge cited this success as a first step in Miami gaining experience and confidence in being able to provide responsible service with responsible behavior.
