Blue Laws

[Armed Eastsider]

Why do these exist again?

Went to the grocery store earlier, around 1AM. I wasnt sure, but I thought that since it is Monday morning at 1AM and not still Sunday, that I would be able to buy my whiskey as long as it was before 3.

Well I was wrong, and the cashier sure thought I was an idiot.

Car dealerships are not allowed by law to operate on a Sunday. How stupid is that? Seriously.


In keeping with the tradition, I have thought of a few new laws we should seriously consider introducing:

No yogurt may be consumed on Tuesdays (exceptions: mixed berry, banana)

Bowling is strictly prohibited on Fridays, unless it is the 2nd Friday of the month of a leap year.

A person who walks a dog on a public sidewalk on a Thursday in the month of April commits a Class C misdemeanor.

Brushing your teeth is strictly prohibited between the hours of 3AM and 7AM on a Sunday.

Yeah from midnight saturday into sunday until 0700 monday morning, no booze sales. Thats why I live by a quote a friend once told me... "You buy your beer on saturday, because you aint drinking mine on sunday."

Honestly this law is stupid, I dont argue that. I have just adapted to it. I really dont drink a lot, mostly the summer months when Im working outdoors on the house/yard and soforth.

I believe there was a bill looking to change this law, but that may have got the shaft when the dems went into crybaby mode and hopped the state line.

I have only been back in Indiana for about 11 years. I rarely drink so was not aware of this blue law. So what other blue laws exist aside from the two already mentioned?

I don't drink so they don't affect me. But we didn't have this law back home. Booze was a 7 day a week thing. I got so used to no alcohol sales here that when I was in Kansas in Nov 2009, it was crazy weird to see liquor stores open on Sunday Oh and if you know someone with a valid military ID, one word....PX

Say what you will about our friends to the west in IL. But at least they can buy liquor on sundays. Also, they can buy it online and have it shipped.

True. Up til my divorce, I could get liquor on a Sunday here in Indy. In person. Never needed that talent though

I tried to buy alcohol at WalMart the other day (it was a weekday) at 4am CST. They informed me that there were no alcohol sales from 3am-7am...I was a bit confused as I'd never heard of this before. It's retarded.
