[QUOTE="Ouachita, post: 1800573, member: 16802"] It’s happened. I just bought beer in our county, legally. It was on the ballot for the umpteenth time last fall. I stopped at the fuel pumps today, just a little mom and pop convenience store with two pump stations out front. I don’t recall ever having to wait in a line for fuel, nor when walking inside to pay for it. Owner, Brian, was carrying empty cardboard beer boxes outside to an overflowing dumpster. He had sold his first beer at 8:30am and said it hadn’t slowed down. I came through from work to get my Friday afternoon dose of fuel. I still didn’t have to wait on anyone pumping fuel, but I did have to wait on a couple folks to move their vehicles. They were using it as a parking lot while they shopped. I did have to stand in line to pay for my fuel, behind a half dozen folks paying for their beer and foo-foo drinks. It was a madhouse. I’m hoping the excitement will fade, or at least become more evenly distributed. This is the first time for everyone alive this day to be able to purchase alcohol since Prohibition (in Polk County AR, to include all surrounding counties in AR). Seems like a watershed moment. I’m not sure what to think yet. [/QUOTE]
