Which state has the worst liquor laws?

splath63 asked the question:

I vote for PA, because you can’t get six-packs anywhere but a bar (beverage stores only sell cases - and yeah, you have to go to a different store for wine and spirits). And all PA stores are controlled by gov’t so there’s no competition, no lower prices. You’d think that a state that just legalized gambling would be more lax in their liquor laws. Oh, and they just recently let liquor stores be open on sunday afternoons.

    Kansas is pretty bad.
    1. we still have dry counties (in about half the counties you cannot buy even a 3.2 beer).
    2. you can buy beer in a liquor store, but that store cannot sell ANYTHING else - no ice, mixers, straws, tonic water.
    3. if you own a liquor store you cannot also own a restaurant in which liquor is served - neither can your spouse.
    4. in the majority of the state there are no Sunday liquor sales - the law prohibiting it was just recently overturned, and only 1 or 2 counties have passed laws allowing it.

    The state of intoxication. The liquor laws are always worst when one is actually drunk.

    By far it’s Pennsylvania!! (i live near Pittsburgh) There’s nothing worse than having a party on Saturday night, or Sunday and running out of wine or liquor. You’re just plain old SOL. They are supposed to be putting liquor stores inside Giant Eagle here at some point. I believe they will still be state controlled, but at least you don’t have to run to 2 different stores when you’re trying to get ready for a party!

    Oregon - liquor prices are 106% above the national average. I have to make a trip to California to buy booze, or have people bring it up to me.

    I often wondered why alchohol couldn’t be sold in my state on election day. Are they afraid someone might “drink and vote”?
