Ahhh prohabition, remember when they tried it in the States in the thirties, it made more money than gambling and prostitution put together

it definitely made an impact at the night market on friday, quessing 95 % of peopel usually there went elsewhere, very relaxing, but no gals serving to watch, a good holiday for them. and yes, i was the only one drinking, yes i did, a cooler, and quite refreshing. even shared one with couple italian newbies at the market that were a bit depressed on the news. so i shared a smile, damn i'm good.

was there last weekend, full, even though festival drew some away i'm sure.

Friday night I went to the festival so no problems. Saturday night I watched TV with a couple of vodka and orange. Sunday night 2 large Leo in a glass with mickey mouse on it in a bar in town, and then a large Leo in a coffee cup at a well known restaurant. So far no ill effects.

In the US, no alcohol sales while election polls are open.
Normally 6.am to 6 or 7 pm
Then it's balls to the wall

What state did you live in? No ban in California.
