BMS ordered 545,000 beer for the UT-VT game. That sounds like a lot, but at 150 K that's only 3.63 beer per person. Course, it will be plenty of "shine" being passed around too.

Considering they'll probably be about $8 a pop, thats gonna be over $4 million in revenue just off alcohol if they sell even close to all of it.

If you're sitting..

...at the top of the stadium in one end zone and the play is happening at the opposite endzone you'll be over 200 yards from the action. I guess it'll be a unique experience, but still...

Here's the view from one of the best seats in the stadium. Terrible.

Probably half that number will be under 21, so it'll average over 7 beers per eligible fan. There'll be a lot of drunk fans driving away from the Bristol track.

I still don't know how the hell you don't bring in temp bleachers.

What redneck imbecile thought these seats would be a good idea? You need binoculars to see your own endzone, a telescope for the other one.

It looks like they wanted to recreate a live version of the football shake & rattle game, the one back in the day where the metal field vibrated & kids in coonskin caps watched with glee. I don't know the actually name of this ancient toy.

Looks like it is going to be like when they do the Final Four in the Superdome, but on a much larger scale. Probably going to be a crappy experience for a lot of folks.

It's all about the greenbacks and Bruton Smith has been planning for this for years. It most likely will be a one time deal anyway and he will make plenty of money on this. He has always been an innovator just like when he had truckloads of red clay put on this racing surface to host a world of outlaws sprint car race there quite a few years ago.
