If you’ve ever been to a stadium anywhere outside of California, you’ll notice that there are people walking around selling beer, to everyone, at their seat. For those who were going to games at the Coliseum watching the 70’s champs, you likely remember the roving beer vendors with some nostalgia, ensuring that the bleacher bums stayed lubricated at all times.
However, since the 1980’s, liquor permits for sports stadiums in California have not permitted roving beer vendors, except at premium full-service seats where waiters take food and drink orders. (This was characterized as a “gentlemen’s agreement” with the CHP).
