No, its not alcohol. And no, its not anything else regarding the WOW. And, It really isn't worth getting into because too many would take it personally.

I only made the point to recognize that its an issue that won't be corrected. Its way easier for BYU to travel to awesome venue's on the road so I don't worry about it.
