@BRRABill can't be any worse than GA...
Only strange law in GA that I'm aware of is that a beer joint can't be closer than 100 yards to a church property or something like that (but that may just be a city ordinance)...

@dafyre 3 tiered distribution (dirty from top to bottom, lots of folks taking a slice on the way), the fact that a regular store can't apply for a liquor license, 12:30pm before you can buy on Sundays (screw you, Saturday night 3rd shift workers), plus tons of stupid local ordinance stuff that's even stricter. Not to mention the ridiculous restrictions on brewery and distillery tours, and the fact that those places can't sell you their product directly (state liquor board has to get a piece, dirty crooked bastards). It's no surprise that GA is always ranked 47th or worse out of 50 in almost every conceivable category.

Because churchgoers and beer....

@BRRABill Yes, they do. However, I make my own beer and I got a significant enough raise I don't care. And you can still buy all the booze, you just have to drive to a State run store to do so (they are everywhere).
And Colorado is just right over there if you're a heathen.
Sinner.

This is the case in NY as well... or at least it was until recently.

PA is the same with the state stores, but it's changing now. Some grocery stores like Giant Eagle have alcohol and gas stations like Sheetz have it too.

Illinois has plenty of f***ed up problems, but buying alcohol is not one of them. screw all you people I guess I will stay here.

Here in Texas, I'm in a dry city. Have to drive to the next city to get liquor.

Couple towns over from my hometown is a dry town too. So they built the Bowling alley outside city limits.

I'm in the middle sadly.

It funny that they are making it even easier to access one of the biggest (and worst socially accepted) drugs. Honestly, what good does it actually do?
-
A town near an Indian reservation refused to renew the liquor licenses of the 3 local shops because of the alcohol problem the Indian reservation has. Now they have to drive another 10 miles to get their booze.

Eh... Everybody in my town used to go to Bob's Beer, Bait, Tackle & Baptist Church. Go to church, get Beer, Bait, & Tackle. Every 5th Sunday, there's a fish fry out back.

I agree with you Jared. I am going to stay in my Illinois(remember kids there is no noise in Illinois, the s is silent). Our roads might crumble (all construction on roads is coming to a stop if no budget is passed by June 30 which there won't be http://www.bnd.com/news/local/article85091162.html). Before that announcement IDOT was out on TV and radio stations warning that with the upcoming summer heat that roads might buckle and drivers need to be aware of this, I told my wife that is IDOTs way of saying we ain't fixing S#!T drive at your own risk. We are seriously close to bankruptcy (http://www.cbsnews.com/news/could-illinois-be-the-first-state-to-file-for-bankruptcy/). However we can get all the liquor we need or want, right now we need a lot.

How do they get around the ban?

Small town governmental corruption. Not that I agree with the ban... it hurts our town and has driven a few restaurants out. But if you're going to apply a law apply it to everyone.
