Austin Peay to enhance fan experience

| By:

CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. - Alcohol will be available for purchase by the general public for Austin Peay State University men's and women's basketball games at the Winfield Dunn Center, beginning Wednesday when the Governors' men's squad hosts Western Kentucky at 7 p.m. CT.

"Not only will this game day initiative enhance our fan experience, it will provide additional resources to invest in our mission of helping our student-athletes succeed on and off the field, such as through facility enhancements and in other areas," said Gerald Harrison, Austin Peay Vice President and Director of Athletics. "We want our Governors' family to have a safe, inclusive, and welcoming experience at our games, and we will continue to monitor this new amenity closely throughout the men's and women's basketball seasons."

Alcohol sales at home men's and women's basketball games will be guided by Austin Peay's new alcohol sales policy, designed to promote responsible consumption and a safe and enjoyable environment for all fans. 

A variety of domestic and imported beers will be available for purchase through the arena's licensed vendor, Sodexho, within governing regulations. Alcohol will be served only by trained concessions team members.
