The last thing the SEC needs is more money. Their TV contract with CBS expires in 2022, of which the SEC is non-too proud of, and they want a five fold increase from present numbers. That's an additional $12-14 million in each school coffers annually. 


Some programs have already started their lil booze fling. They'd partition an area in the bowels of the stadium and for a certain admittance price you can enter and partake of your fav libation. The choices are limited as well as the experience. As one particular noted during his excursion----"it had all of the ambiance of drinking out of a paper bag underneath the interstate".
