ALCOHOL SALES: In order to purchase alcohol, all fans — regardless of age — must present a valid ID at designated stations in tailgating areas or stadium concourses to receive a wristband on your right wrist for that day's game. When making your first purchase of alcohol in the stadium, you must present your ID again at the point of sale to receive that day's stamp on the same hand. You must have that day's wristband and stamp in order to purchase alcohol in the stadium. Board policy requires each fan to have his or her ID on them at all times as age verification will take place at points of sale and beyond. Stadium gates open 90 minutes prior to kickoff, with alcohol sales — consisting of beer and seltzer only — starting one hour prior to kickoff and ending at the conclusion of the third quarter as per BOR policy. Two sections within Dana J. Dykhouse Stadium have been designated as alcohol-free zones: Section 207 in the west grandstand and Section 123 on the east side. All transactions at alcohol kiosks in the stadium concourses will be processed by credit card only. For SDSU students, payment via campus meal plans will not be accepted for alcohol sales.
