Ok well we are now in July so we needed a new chat thread....

so in dry citys can you HAVE beer just not buy it? that seems point less....

 

Pretty much. You can buy it at clubs, but there are no liqour stores and gas stations/grocery stores can't sell it.

 

what are they trying to do by being a dry city?

 

I wish I new. I guess its a conservative christian thing. (not bashing any of you out there). We used to get all kinds of people through the city asking were to buy beer. Our whole county was dry untill this year! We had a guy go through all the steps to become his own city just to start a Liqour Store! No crap its called Mobile City Tx it is a trailer park with a government.

 

thats sweet!!!! i know where i am going to move to next...what kind of property tax do they have?

 

i thought that would be sig worthy...

 

I'm honored. I really am. I don't think they have one they spend all their money at City Hall, aka Siguel's Liqour Store!

 

Check this out: Mobile City, Texas - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 

that is the best thing ever! you made my day!

 

That's entrepreneurship at it's best!

 

That is awesome. I'm gonna have to stop by next time I head out to Elmo.

 

You should. It's right off of I-30 on the North Side right after the Love's Truck Stop (heading east). The Exit is for FM-549.

 

I seriously don't belive they have a property tax because the owner of the Liqour Store owns the trailer park.

 

oh ok, man i am telling everyone about this place!

 

Move on in! I live in Royse City which is 5mi or so away. Untill last fall we had to drive to Mobile City to buy alcohol. They pretty much monopolized a 20-30 sq mi area in Texas, and we're always drunk so you know he made some greeeeeeen! I can personaly account for a lump sum of his earnings.
