Super Bowlers buy booze now-Sunday might be too late in your state

Read Time:1 Minute, 28 Second

There are some states in America where the Jesus freaks have legislated fun out of life, and while it’s usually just Sunday, and, in Georgia, it’s also Thanksgiving, sometimes it can be those special days as well, especially if they fall on Sunday.

SundayAlcohol

You see, the Christians are told by the ancient desert dwellers who wrote this big book about God that Sunday is a day of rest because that’s the day that God rested after making Hooters, Outbacks, and footballs, therefore no one is allowed to drink demon rum in any form, because, apparently that might wake God from his nap.  What complete silliness.

From Vox.com.

If you want to buy harder liquor in time for the Super Bowl, you may have to do it before Sunday depending on which state you live in.

Some states have prohibited all sorts of activities — work, loud noises, and horse racing, as a few examples — on Sunday to uphold the day as a time of worship or relaxation. Many of those bans have been repealed or deemed unconstitutional, but some states still prohibit Sunday liquor sales.

 

(MinnPost)

MinnPost‘s Briana Bierschbach previously explained the opposition to a repeal in Minnesota, which applies to other states as well: “Liquor store owners from across the state are organized by the Minnesota Licensed Beverage Association (MLBA), a powerful lobbying force at the Capitol. Mom and Pop liquor shops argue Sunday sales would force them to be open seven days a week but just stretch out same revenue they’d make over six days. Each year the MLBA joins forces with the Teamsters Joint Council 32 union and liquor industry lobbyists to squash efforts to repeal the ban.”
