A portion of Moscow’s city code may be amended to allow tailgaters at University of Idaho football games to consume alcoholic beverages in areas outside the Kibbie Dome.

Under changes being considered by the city, alcohol would be allowed as long as it is in an opaque plastic or paper container that is not labeled or branded by an alcohol distributor or manufacturer.

City Attorney Rod Hall told the Moscow Administrative Committee on Monday that open containers of alcoholic beverages in any public place or places open to the public are prohibited unless authorized or permitted, per city code.

He said the city is aware that some tailgaters may consume alcoholic beverages prior to University of Idaho home football games. A decision by the Idaho State Board of Education last year essentially banned alcohol outside of the Kibbie Dome/Garrett Cabeza, Moscow-Pullman Daily News. More here.
