Well, by their spokesman's own admission, they were providing alcohol for the attendees, so basically doesn't this just boil down to them wanting to get paid while the attendees get drunk? Much the same as how baseball stadiums won't allow you to bring in anything more than peanuts and water but of course, if you want a slice of pizza or a hot pretzel they'll be more than happy to allow you to consume one in the stadium as long as you pay their price.

So with that, not a big deal at all, but something worth a little bit of punishment.
There are many other reasons why a venue may restrict what is brought onto the premesis. Not the least would be that if they provide all the alcohol, they can also cut off the alcohol when things are getting out of hand.

I'm sure that restricting sources of alcohol has much more to do with risk management rather than getting rich. Besides, most venues have similar policies because it's either required by law or required by their insurance carrier. If a person drinks themselves to oblivion then dies, injures self or others, etc., the venue would still be held partially responsible even if that person didn't drink the alcohol that they provided.
