University police reported fewer incidents than normal at TCF Bank Stadium on Saturday despite brand-new beer and wine sales.

The U now joins 11 Division-I football programs out of 120 that sell beer to all fans in university-owned stadiums. Some say it could be the start of a new reality for university stadiums, with U leaders expecting an extra $2 million a year in alcohol sales flowing into the school's athletic budget. No sales numbers were available Saturday, but police reported fewer problem incidents at the game than normal.

"All and all, it went as smoothly as could be expected," spokesman Chuck Tombarge said. "We're feeling it was a successful day."

I have a feeling there may be more 'incidents' during the syracuse game.
