The wait for a stance on alcohol sales in Vaught-Hemingway Stadium during the 2019 season could soon be over.
Ole Miss Interim Athletic Director Keith Carter says the administration will meet later this week with hopes of reaching a consensus for the upcoming football season. Carter expects an official announcement sometime next week before the Rebels’ home opener against Arkansas on Sep. 7.
Six SEC schools have confirmed they will sell beer and wine to fans in general seating of their football stadiums since the conference lifted its ban early this summer. Multiple schools have also already announced that alcohol will not be sold in 2019, but Ole Miss has yet to make a statement in either direction.
