    Oh I get it. But how alcohol is legally able to be served AT GAS stations, where there is a high probability you drove there, is the real head scratcher. It’s almost entrapment.

    Can get shots at gas station, but can’t buy alcohol after midnight and not on Sundays at all in some states (7pm and not on sunday in SC). Fucking wild what is and isn’t allowed.

        Yes! Saw that in arizona. Hear other states have liquor on one side, beer on the other, drive through barns. They just put it in your trunk. Wild shit

      a single drink isn’t enough to go over the BAC limit. You typically need 2-3.

      Alcohol rules are state by state and every state has different history. In my state happy hour is illegal due to MADD, and they have tried to repeal it several times and each time it gets shot down. A lot of it also has to do alcohol businesses wanting limited hours and less competition.
