LANSING, Mich. — Gov. Gretchen Whitmer signed legislation Tuesday that would allow for the sale of alcohol in college stadiums and arenas.
Whitmer described the law as a way to "curb binge drinking at college sporting events" by cutting down on excessive alcohol consumption while tailgating.
She noted that Michigan State University and University of Michigan are two of three Big Ten schools that still ban the sale of alcohol at sporting events.
