So did tobacco ads and thats all gone now so IMO, its not out of the realm of possibility. It does bring in a lot of $ but one bad booze fueled incident where someone gets killed that hurts the team's or league's image and result in a big payout could cause the powers that be to think its not worth it anymore.

But you can replace ads. Where is the lost alcohol revenue going to come from? I mean, you can replace the vendor, but I don't think $5 lemonade and $6 hot dogs sell quite as well as beer. I feel like people will put a cap on the amount they'll pay for food at an event, but probably not on alcohol.
