i was talking to someone who is high up in the security at thomond park there and she said that any venue ie thomond park, needs to host a certain amount of games etc in order to be able to allow drink outside, the elton john concert was the first venue hosted that was allowed, so i suspect that you'll be able to drink in your seats for the matches coming up and next season (drink that they provide you, not your own!:D)
makes sence too, you wont have thousands of people trying to finish off their drinks before the match starts and have massive queues and empty seats as a result
for the rest of the stadiums around britain and ireland, i prasume its up to the people who own the stadiums to allow..soccer fans tend to be more violent than rugby so that could be the reason
Well in Croker you cannot drink at your seat and that applys for both GAA and rugby games.
When i went to St James Park in Newcastle your not allowed drink in your seats, ill never forget downing 2 pints of Newcastle Brown Ale at half time, good times

There'll more than likely be FAI stewards at it and they'll take the top off the bottle. So make sure you bring a spare capyeah i say you be grand with that.if its in a bottle of coke they're not gonna know.
There is never any alcohol sold inside the stadium bars at soccer internationals. I've never seen it at Lansdowne or Croke Park, or on any of the away trips. I'd be surprised if it's allowed at Thomond.i know they are allowing people bring their drinks (from the bar to their position in the stadium) which was allowed from the elton john concert onwards but im wondering if id get away with bringing in a normal sized bottol of coke with vodka in it? i plan on heading out afterwards!..soccer fans tend to be more violent than rugby so that could be the reason
:rolleyes:
It's for crowd control purposes and nothing else. It also means a more efficient and cost effective stadium clean up afterwards. Lads who are jarred tend to get in to fights and arguements for no reason and this is all the more possible at sporting events. Your example would never happen as bars are never kept open during the games anyway, only before and at half time.dont know the official reason but look at it this way.....
a guy brings a beer to his seat. has another. has another. has another. has another.has another. has another.has another. has another.has another. has another. now he is well jared but falls while he is making his way from his seat down the steps. what do you think is going to happen...........0 -

What do they want with all the little plastic bottle caps - them and their €55 Stand tickets - Feckin Eejits :P
Was at a Concert before and a Security type person took a 500ml bottle of Coke [and vodka] off a girl with us, sniffed it and then poured it out slowly and lovingly all over the grass with an orgasmic smile on his face.
- I think horrific, slow, agonising deaths were created specifically for Cnuts like him............0 -
