Do you remember "Watergate Whiskey"? A fifth costs maybe $7, and the empty was selling for $9?

The legitimate bums in DC must have been in heaven.

I don’t remember the Watergate whiskey.
$7 a fifth sounds a bit pricey for that day and time, but it was “The” Watergate after all.

A DC wino could have bought a butt load of Mad Dog or Thunderbird for the price of one empty.

I remember buying some peach wine in Danville, VA for 35 cents a pint about then.
