Default How to draw a crowd during a Corona-19 outbreaks

Close the State Liqueur Stores!!!!!!!!

...........which is what Pa announced today..... they will all close at 9pm this evening...............

So the "mobs" will only have 12 hours to form and spread the virus.

Drove by two this am........ 10am at the first a large crowd and the shelves were half empty an hour after opening. The beer distributor next door had maybe two dozen cases of beer on the floor.


Drove by a second just prior to opening at 11 and they were lined up along the sidewalk for 50 yds.

Guess the last one out the door will have the last bottle of orange flavored vodka... and a $200 bottle of single malt scotch!!!!!

I lived in Pa. for 37yrs and the State liquor stores were just that. I guess they also sold wine but beer was/is readily available at outlets across the State. Don't see anything online about those retailers being closed.
