Penn State has announced that, for the first time, Berkey Creamery ice cream will be available inside Beaver Stadium during each Nittany Lions home game.

"Fans will be able to purchase pints of vanilla, chocolate, Death by Chocolate, chocolate chip cookie dough, cookies n' cream and Peachy Paterno at the stadium," the school wrote in a release.

"We've known for a while that our customers would appreciate the convenience of buying ice cream directly at the stadium, and we're very excited to make that a reality this fall," added Jim Brown, the Creamery assistant manager, in the same release.

A stop at the university's famed ice cream shop, which is just down the street from the 107,000-seat venue, is a staple for most fans on game day, but the ability to now buy pints inside the stadium may help reduce the long lines and congestion that frequent the Creamery store, which is located inside the Rodney Erickson Food Science Building, during home game weekends.

"It's sort of a tradition to stand in that line," Brown said. "But not everyone has the time or wants to do that for every football game. So we're hoping that this will mean that everyone who wants our ice cream can get it every time they come to campus."

The Creamery hopes to expand the in-stadium offerings from six to 25 flavors by next spring. The ice cream will be served at the stadium's concession stands.
