• Oct. 6: Two more cases of minors being served alcohol at the game with Wyoming.
• Nov. 8: At the Bruno Mars concert, there was an incident of alcohol being served to a minor and a Liquor Commission investigator was blocked as a result.
• Nov. 10: Another incident during the second Bruno Mars concert of a minor being served.
• Dec. 7: A Liquor Commission investigator once again reported being blocked at the Eagles concert.
• Dec. 27: At the Cardi B, Snoop Dogg concert, there were six reported cases of alcohol to minors.
• Feb. 15: Investigators found one case of a minor being served at the Eminem concert.
