Well, well...

The stupid goddamn minibottle law in this hick state will be gotten rid of in 2005. How nice.

The minibottles are made at various distileries. Basically, the bars just go to the liquor stores and buy cases of mini-bottles.

The reason we have mini-bottles is back in the '70s, South Carolina was a dry state (no alcohol). When it was decided to allow alcohol, it was put into the state consitution that it had to be poured from minibottles so that the customer knew exactly how much alcohol they were getting.

South Carolina is 'the buckle of the bible belt'. Located in the South (eastern) part of the country, it is quite conservative. Recently, they finally passed the law allowing people to legally get tattoos in this state.

As long as those tattoos weren't in certain locations.
