SCOTTSDALE - Arizona liquor agents made 71 arrests for liquor violations in and around the FBR Open golf tournament and the Super Bowl parties in downtown Scottsdale.Forty-six of those arrests were at the FBR at the TPC Scottsdale and the golf tournament's nearby Birds Nest party tent.Six of those were for so-called "administrative charges" against liquor license holders at the golf tournament.
Lee Hill, a spokeswoman for the Arizona Department of Liquor License and Control, said those arrests could have been for a range of violations, such as not posting a license or "over-serving" partying patrons.The department used every investigator available in a crackdown on liquor violations during last week's super-charged partying, Hill said.For the first time, the agency required booze buyers at the FBR to wear a free wristband to prove they were old enough to drink. Patrons also were limited to buying no more than two drinks at a time. "The wristbands were a marked improvement from last year in our ability to curb underage drinking," Hill said.Liquor agents nabbed another 25 people at rousing Super Bowl-inspired parties in downtown Scottsdale.In addition, they levied 41 administrative charges against: Leather and Lace, the Bud Bowl, Sugar Daddy's, the 944 Super Village, Devil's Martini, Chronic Taco, Dirty Devil Bungalow, Myst and The Door. Scottsdale police, the Arizona Department of Public Safety and other East Valley police agencies made more than 120 DUI arrests since their special enforcement began Jan. 24.
