Ohio State Set to Begin Pilot Program Selling Beer and Wine in Ohio Stadium Suites and Club Seats This Fall

Alcohol sales are coming to Ohio Stadium this fall — well, at least in some capacity.

Patrons sitting at the suite and club levels of The Horseshoe will have the luxury of purchasing beer and wine during football games, Ohio State Vice President and Director of Athletics Gene Smith announced Friday.

"This decision was made in consultation and with input from appropriate stakeholders, including the Athletics Council," Smith said in a press release. "The safety and well-being of our campus community is our first priority and the university will carefully monitor and assess the pilot program throughout the season.
