I live in Ohio and I remember it wasn't even that long ago when Yuengling was made available here, and it's only one state over. Guess there are still pretty strict distribution laws for alcohol. I saw Smokey and the Bandit for the first time two years ago and it baffled me that the plot was about smuggling Coors because it was apparently illegal to sell it east of the Mississippi in the 70's.
Smokey and the Bandit is such a classic. Made when movies just entertained with out an agenda.
I believe those restrictions were because at the time Coors had a higher alcohol content. Anyone correct me if I'm wrong. I'm in North Carolina and went to high school 81-85, back then most teens drank way to much, not to mention we were underage. I went to a very small private school, the soccer team was going to a tournament in Virginia. I can't tell you how many times I heard the guys discussing bringing coors back. The drinking age was still 18 back then and the seniors bought the beer.
