While I don't really play the lottery, many times I buy extra alcohol on Saturday so that I can have a beer while watching football on Sunday. Sometimes my wife and I will even drive to Hardin County Tennessee just across Pickwick Lake if we didn't get any extra on Saturday. It is about 45 minutes away and is a very nice drive.
As far as whether or not alcohol should be sold on Sunday, I would have to say that without doubt it should. For several years I lived in Birmingham. There it is sold after 12:00 noon on Sunday. I don't really see what the big deal is and I don't think there is any reason not to sell alcohol on Sunday. To me, it makes more sense to not sell it at all rather than have one day a week be "dry."
You may have seen the article in the TD this morning about New Year's Eve falling on Sunday this year. That is really going to hurt Colbert County businesses.
But brakefield... the point is that you are a tax-paying ADULT, and we live by antiquated laws here in the Shoals, and believe me, I just do NOT understand how a few can tell so many what to do and where to go, and where not to go... that is stepping over the line, in my opinion... Oh well, that is just my opinion though.
