Default Just for Fun: Blue Laws (Piggybacking. Blame it on the TJ's

The thing that always cracked me up about TN's dry counties was the
prohibition laws were up for a new vote every couple years and the
forces that invariably prevailed were churches spearheading the dry
county temperance campaigns which were mostly funded by the liquor
stores in the neighboring wet counties. A perfect example of church
and state and money and politics in action.
