The days of slipping out of the Baylor game during halftime for a bite and a swig are history under the rules of the new McLane Stadium.

A new one-entry, one-exit rule not only affects tailgaters but could crimp business for vendors set up outside the stadium.

At the old Floyd Casey Stadium, some game patrons would trek to George’s Party Zone during halftime for burgers, beer and margaritas. Others would head to their trucks for an adult beverage, since alcohol is forbidden at Baylor events.

Baylor officials acknowledged the no-re-entry policy Thursday and said they plan to announce it along with other new stadium policies next week.

Sammy Citrano, owner of George’s Party Zone, declined to comment on the policy until the announcement. He said he expects his new Party Zone across from McLane Stadium will attract large crowds before and after the game, as well as some who choose to watch the second half on TV.

Youngdae Moon, owner of the Club Sandwich food truck, said he has been considering setting up at the Brazos Parking complex, which also includes the Party Zone. But he said the policy may change his plans.
