Gotta say, all this discussion about finding liquor stores (or any place to buy beer) is so foreign to us here back home in LA. :lol: But I'm familiar with it too - my former LSU roommate moved to Mesquite in the early 80's and then later relocated his family to Plano, so I've experienced those beer-hunting trips with him myself. It was quite a culture-shock to us! Y'all have fun! :geaux:
That took some getting used to for me, too. Plano has beer and wine sales (but not before noon, I found out one Sunday morning when I was buying for a Super Bowl party.) Liquor is a different matter altogether, as the perception is that towns which sell liquor are "seedier." We have to go to The Colony for liquor.
I live in Dallas and I've never had a problem finding a liquor store. It's just the fact that they close at 9 that really sucks.
I remember my shock and anger when I moved here right out of school. To me, it seemed illegal that they could limit the sale of legal beverages. This was before I knew where the Colony was and we would have to go down to Addison. That was a scene on weekend nights.
Yes, I used to hang out in Addison on Thursday nights a bunch when I was a single girl living in Dallas.
man - I am a little bummed now because I will be in Austin the weekend of this game, and not McKinney. This sounds like a lot of fun!
