STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) - Penn State says tailgaters who like drinking beer in the grass parking lots before games will have to can it.
A new policy announced Monday bans glass bottles from its field lots.
That also means pouring the contents of a bottle into a cup is a no-go. Bottles won’t be allowed anywhere in the grass lots, even if they’re empty and in a recycling bag.
Officials say it’s a safety issue for children, students and animals that use the field the rest of the year.
Those who tailgate on concrete will still be able to drink from glass - the rule applies only to the grass lots.
