Let’s thank Coach Tedford, Sandy Barbour, et al., for the new stadium, training facilities, and record of most Cal Football wins by any Cal coach. As Barbour has said, we will win with Tedford as coach. I say, “Tedford has earned the opportunity to show us what he can do with the new facilities.”

Boaltblue, True dat!

This thread made me crave Top Dog. Tried Slaw Dog in LA. Sucked.

RE: Alcohol. If you don’t have wherewithal to smuggle booze into Memorial, you shouldn’t be at Cal.

H8sRed, can anyone go there to procure alcohol? If so, good news!

Alcohol is available in the ESP sections.

My point being this: We’re missing out on a major revenue source by not selling alcohol at the stadium. 20 year olds will get drunk no matter what. The 40,000 non-student fans who would be buying beers aren’t able to, which seems like a wasted (pardon the pun) opportunity.

Oh definitely. Heck, just wear pants with big pockets and you can probably get a flask in.

Will, in my day security was pretty lax. One smuggling method was filling up a gallon milk jug from the keg and throwing it over the fence. Half pints, pints and joints were also pretty easy to get in.
