They’d be better off arresting Congressman Ellison for pretending to be an American.

If this is all LEOs have to worry about in MN, must be a pretty dull place!

Back in the 1970’s, in Washington state, it was illegal to sell Coors. I remember going to Moscow Idaho in my Vega and bringing back a few cases under a blanket in the back. Well, I was also only 18 and the drinking age in Idaho was 18, while it was 21 in Seattle, where I lived.

I guess that is my one foray into bootlegging. :-)

How is it illegal to sell this product in another state? (if all appropriate taxes were paid)

Clearly trouble is brewing in Minnesota. Things are finally coming to a head! The bar owners may just can all the employees, if they can’t keep this case all bottled up!

Everyone of a certain age, and fondness for beer, has a similar story. Coors didn’t want its beer distributed to distant regions where it couldn’t guarantee the beer was kept cold and “fresh.” Coors then became contraband outside of its official distribution area, selling for as much as twice the price of comparable beers in, for example, the DC area. Forbidden fruit and all that ...

I remember loading two cases of the stuff on an airplane in Phoenix (circa 1973), and heading back to Cleveland. And Coors was so popular you could only find it in Phx on Tuesday afternoon when the beer delivery truck came, sold out in couple hours.

Buying beer from a store in Minn. can be a problem. Best to get it in Wisc.

30 million illegal immigrants and counting...

This bar is what they have the manpower for.

Honestly...
