For those interested in the subject, OETA (PBS, CH. 11) is doing a segment tonight at 9:00 PM on the "Stateline" program about the growing grape/wine industry in Oklahoma and obstacles with Oklahoma's liquor laws.  I think it may be a rebroadcast, but of interest due to upcoming statewide votes.

I think there's also another little known law that you have to be old enough to know how to spell "liquer" before you can drink it.

Anyone willing to try and repeal the archaic alcohol blue laws in this state gets my vote.  Sure Jesus didnt buy alcohol on Sundays, he could just turn on the tap and make it himself.

Seriously though, they do no good for anyone and just serve as another mocking point against 'backwards' Oklahoma.  The only thing it accomplishes is to punish citizens who want to pick up a bottle of wine on a Friday night (9pm) or some beers for a Sunday BBQ.  Im willing to be most o fhte alcoholics have figured out the system and are able to drink around it.
