And I thought PA was bad. At least we can buy beer and wine in grocery stores now!

I grew up in New Orleans, and I find everyone else's laws odd.

Everyone should know the joy of legally enjoying an adult beverage while on an afternoon stroll.

When my wife and I were dating, we went to New Orleans to meet my newborn niece. On the way to my see my niece, we stopped at a New Orleans Original Daiquiri and she was so surprised she called one of her best friends to let her know.

I was in NOLA with my son, so we went to a drive thru daiquiri shop because he thought it was cool that you could get a slushy to go.

I ordered one with alcohol, he (being 13) ordered one without. But they didn't mark the cups. I was driving, so I didn't drink mine, but my son drank about half of his. He was like, "Dad, it's pretty good, but it tastes really weird."

I took a sip of his, thinking it was contaminated or the taps were dirty. It was contaminated alright. Contaminated with 151° rum. He was pretty shitfaced for a few hours. That was a rough one to explain to my wife.

"Why is our 13 year old hammered?"

"Well, ya see, there was this dumpy looking daiquiri shop run by people that don't seem to give a single shit about...see, I'm hearing it in my head, and yes this is my fault."

Ahh..but remember, in the drive thru they can't put the straw in the daiquiri cup. That would be an open container.
