Its generally done like that at most venues. It's multipurpose, stops it being easily used as a projectile, uncapped bottles are less likely to send you flying if you stand on them and for the tin foil hat wearers the venue are hoping you spill it and have to buy another drink
Firstly it’s a health and safety issue when they are dropped on the floor or left under seats. If the lid is on there is potential for the person to fall flying if they stand on it, there is little give it the lid is still on. If the tops are removed they collapse under a person’s weight. Secondly is the less likely reason of bottles being used as missiles. Everyone always thinks this is the reason but it’s usually the first one as a tripping/fall issue.
And the likelihood is the Health and Safety advisor has told the Devils to do this rather than the Devils management choosing to (like most people seem to assume).
H&S gone mad again. I reckon I could throw a full bottle without a top a long long way. Hey, Maybe we can prove it with a new and exciting game instead of chuck a puck!
OH, Thanks for that, butI think I could throw a bottle with no top on, as far as one with a top on, still would hurt! What about cans, they would hurt as well!

Why not just ask for your cap less bottle to be poured into a pint glass? Never seen anyone complaining about a pint of beer not having a lid. Rarely see drinks in pint glasses spilt. Everyone will then be in the same boat..
The bar prices might be a bit steep but at the end of the day, bars will price as high as punters are willing to pay for drinks. If punters stop buying then revenues drop. Unless that happens I don’t expect the price to come down. It is what it is. IAW really needs to start turning a profit and this sort of thing is a part of that.

Regardless of what other venues do, a £1 per pint increase for what I consider a worse product is very steep to me. However, I guess in the long run it will be good for me because I will drink far less at games!
It’s nothing to do with the suppliers, as a brewer we cannot tell a customer what to sell their beer at. This pricing structure has nothing to do with Molson Coors
