Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, a person who has not reached the legal drinking age (21
years of age), and who is not accompanied by his or her parent, guardian or spouse
who has attained the legal drinking age, may not enter or be on any premises for
which a license or permit for the retail sale of alcohol beverages has been issued.
Current law also provides for various exceptions to this prohibition. One such
exception is that a person who has not reached the legal drinking age may enter or
be in a bowling center, regularly established athletic field or stadium at which
alcohol beverages are sold. This bill provides that a person who has not reached the
legal drinking age may enter or be on an outdoor volleyball court immediately
adjacent to premises licensed to sell alcohol beverages.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
