Pennsylvania Considers Mobile Liquor Stores for Rural Areas
Thursday, February 28, 2008
HARRISBURG, Pa. — The state agency that regulates Pennsylvania liquor stores may take its products on the road.
The idea of mobile liquor stores is just one of several possibilities the agency is weighing to make wine and hard liquor more available in rural parts of the state, said Nick Hays, a spokesman for the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board.
Board chairman P.J. Stapleton mentioned the idea Tuesday during a Senate hearing on the agency's budget, but said it's not a priority for the agency.
The agency hasn't fully investigated the concept, Hays said. Officials would have to determine whether state law allows it and whether it's logistically feasible, he said.
The agency oversees more than 600 liquor stores.

that's just fabulous. way worse than the ice cream man!!
Oh my! That is sad!
That's just amazingly idiotic. I live in a rural area and there's much that's needed here. Really. But a rolling bar is not one of them.... =/
Heck, why don't they distribute pot and crack while they're at it? It would save the dealers on gas, and then they could tax those things too and bring in some much-needed revenue.
I hope they don't get thirsty while they're driving that thing around. What are they thinking?
oh, my. I *love* the comment about the ice cream man.
man, we're really missing out over here!
