Although most stadiums don't sell alcohol, nothing stops fans from getting their drink on. So, Vegas Insider set out to find which NCAA fanbases drink the most and the results are shocking.

Of course, only one team can be deemed the booziest of them all. To find which NCAA fans drink the most, Vegas Insider "surveyed more than 2,000 NCAA Division I football fans that are 21 or older to ask them all about their gameday drinking habits."
