You used to not be able to buy Coors out east." Smokey and the Bandit" was about the Bandit (Burt Reynolds) keeping Smokey (Jackie Gleason) off of Jerry Reeds butt who was bringing a semi load of Coors to Atlanta.
I don't remember the exact words from the theme song, but a line went like The folks are thirsty in Atlanta, and theres beer in Texarkana..
