If you purchase a permit you are able to bring in single-serving plastic bottles or cans of beer, wine coolers, wine, and products such as “hard” lemonade. Other alcoholic beverages are NOT permitted. Such alcoholic beverages shall be consumed only at the area/location indicated in the Permit.

Permits can also be purchased day-of at the tournament. A permit is good for the weekend only and in the parking lot and tent only.
