The new store concept is expected to attract the students of nearby Penn State University.
The students of Pennsylvania State University now have a new place to eat and purchase alcohol, within walking distance of campus. A new and improves Sheetz store has just opened and this is a treat for all State College, Penn. shoppers, as well as the students of the local university.
According to a report by the Centre Daily Times, this new Sheetz has replaced the typical fueling station with a beer cave, in order to better facilitate the local residents, especially those without cars. This new Sheetz is the second of its kind, the first having opened earlier this year near West Virginia University in Morgantown, W.Va.
Prior to the newest Sheetz store in State College, Penn., there were no Sheetz locations within two miles of the Penn State campus. This new location will draw in of-age college students due to the proximity and convenience for purchasing alcohol, as well as other students who are looking to enjoy an off-campus meal.
