When I lived in Missouri ( I think this has since changed), my teenage years I worked in a supermarket. Beer sales only, and on Sunday we had to cover up the beer with burlap, put signs on it that said no beer sales on Sunday - Blue Laws.
You were allowed to buy 3.2% beer, but the supermarket had to store it outside of the market, in a big cooler in the parking lot. If you wanted to buy this piss water, you had to pay for it inside, then be escorted out to the cooler, where the store manager would hand you your six pack (no more than a six was allowed at any one purchase) in a paper sack. How bizzare.
