The first Brew-Thru opened!

It took a while for sales to take off since no one had cars.

Let's hear it for crazy dreamers.

8. Speaking of drive-thru bars
There WAS a drive-thru window at a bar in Hollywood, FL!

I remember thinking ..one day.. I'm coming here.

They would actually serve mixed drinks in plastic cups.

I don't think it's there any more. It may be though. By the time I got back down there I was already totally against liquer in the truck.

:P

9. You couldn't even buy booze in NC until the late 1970s
Seriously, it was a BYOB state until people realized how much revenue they were losing to South Carolina.
