It doesn't because, as has been proved in the past (and as continues to be the case with football matches), people will buy the beer regardless of whether or not they can drink it in their seats.

But i now have 3 pints through the duration of the game instead of 1 pint. Thats extra revenue and profit isn't it?

| Only issue I have is the number of people who are more "merry" than before. Especially as several of them dont seem to be able to handle it and we get spillages. Getting up and down is no more than normal really.

You voluntarily drink three pints of that crap? You must have no tastebuds!

I don't suppose there's been a substantial enough increase for it to make a difference to admission prices. Most will drink what they drink regardless, though, as has been pointed out, they will drink it in their seats instead of missing parts of the match.
Oh, and, what Standee said.

| To be fair the majority tend to go for a pee when we or the opposition score thus minimising the amount of game time missed.

| Quote: tommyfromhull "When it was announced, I thought I was going to have to be up and down all the time, letting people in and out for a release. But to be honest, I've not noticed any difference! As long as it proceeds to not cause any harm, I'm fine with it. Think that is the general consensus with our whole group in the South.'"
Pretty well my view, only slight thing I've seen change is people standing in the stairs gabbing to each other at half time rather than in the concourse. But in terms of having to let people in and out all the time I've seen no change. Perhaps I sit on the same row as the Hull Methodist Church contingent & Temperance Society.

| Not been as bad as I'd feared. I haven't had to stand up once to let someone pass during the game.
As has been said the test will come in the warmer weather.

Nah you cant be, ive been drinking with them before and you'd be up and down out of your seat all the time once that communal wine gets flowing.

I usually go get 1 beer during the game and the people who moan are usually the people that sit at the end of the row. A roll of the eyes or a tut is the most ive heard so far.... simple solution, dont sit at the end
