Although the notice has been posted, representatives from the university said there are no plans of alcohol being sold in the stadium.

Clemson University released the following statement:

“The University, and its contracted vendor Aramark, is required to provide public notice as part of an approval process to request licenses to store alcohol for catering and special events at various locations around campus.

There are no plans for retail sales of alcohol to individuals at these locations.”

Joe Galbraith, Associate Vice President of Communications

According to the Associated Press, the ACC does not have a league-wide policy regarding alcohol sales, and no programs appear to have had issues because of such sales.
