Preferably around Hot Springs. This is a state wide thing?

County by county in Arkansas, I believe. You may could find it for sale in a restaurant before you can in a store.

As near as I can tell, other then perhaps a restaurant, you can buy booze in Arkansas on a Sunday.

Sorry buddy. If you had asked this yesterday we could have told you to stockpile. No one should face a summer Sunday in Arkansas without liquor.

My sister lives a few miles from me and we both used to keep an "emergency supply" of each others favorite libation in case of running out on a sunday back when Georgia was dry on sundays.

According to Google, Shreveport doesn't sell packaged liquor on Sunday. Looks like beer and wine are available in Texarkana. The only place I've heard of selling alcohol on Sunday in Arkansas is Springdale.

Sorry bro. Can only buy drinks at a restaurant on Sunday. If you had vacationed in North Arkansas, like most refined folks do, then you could have at least hopped the border and bought Sunday beer in Missouri.

Yep. I used to drive to Ridgedale, MO. to get some booze when I lived in Harrison on Sundays.

I still have my "Member Card" from a few a few restaurants in Mountain Home .

I grew up in Mountain Home. There's almost as many liquor stores as there is churches.

We used to drive to Missouri on Sunday and buy the "Sunday beer" that had a lower alcohol level. We would just drink twice as much then.

Its been a few years, but I still remember when Osama was killed, the liquor store by Harps in Mtn Home was giving mad discounts

This was around the same time when they still had membership cards.

Harrison didnt have any stores at that time, but opened one up and then it seemed like quite a few popped up. There was that one on 62 (heading to mtn home) that was there for a bit, but closed down.

Not sure the name of the one by Harps now, but it was Jack's Package Store when I was growing up. I bought my first keg there at 17. I called and ordered it from the pay phone that was in the High School. I went after school and paid for it and they even loaded in to the backseat of my car.

I think the other store was the one when you leave Baxter county headed to Marion county by the White River. It's in Cotter. I was surprised to see that it had closed down the last time I drove that way.

I think it was Jacks Package Store.

The other one was closer to Bruno-Pyatt area that I was talking about.

It was a shed and was open not that long iirc. Then the first one in Harrison was behind the movie theater and was a wine/liquor store. They got a lot of trade as the only place in town until more liquor licenses were given and then they went out of business.

Its been 4 years I think since I have been back there. Excited to get back to the area for games this year.

Bruno-Pyatt


Man oh man. Many ages ago, I used to install satellite systems. I was working at a house in the Bruno area. I was in the unfinished basement tacking wires up when my coworker hollered for me to come look at something. I walked over and these people had cut out the bodies of naked women in magazines, but glued the faces of men on them. That was some creepy shite. I was just glad to get out of their before some deliverance shite happened to us.

Oddly enough, we also installed a satellite in Zinc Arkansas. There is a KKK headquarters in Zinc. That place was creepy as frick too.

I can imagine that. I know a few people from Bruno-Pyatt area from work that made me want to stay away.

I, as well, also ended up on their (KKK) compound in my Gov vehicle a few times lost on those back roads. Was never too worried, but didnt stick around.

I have seen some of the videos that they have recorded there. That family, especially the daughter and grandkids are some strange people.

Zinc was weird. When we got in town we had to cross a train track and it went from pavement to dirt. It felt like we were in Mayberry. We were installing a 10' dish that day. After we put the dish together and hung it, I stayed outside to install and wire up the motor and the LNB. My coworker went in to install the receiver.

While I was tracking that dish in the biggest crowd of inbreds gathered to watch me. I was legit weirded out. I wasn't sure if the townspeople wanted make me squeal or eat me for dinner.

Haha. Have you seen the 'crazy turkey lady' from BP that freaks out after catching the turkey from Turkey Trot? That's a prime example of Bruno Pyatt people

Dude, that stretch on 62 West from Flippin to Harrison is full of crazy arse shite. Ever been to Ray Valley by the White River (Flippin....Home of Ranger boats)? I installed a satellite on a house made from the big blocks of styrofoam that use under boat docks. There were people living in old school buses that actually built decks and additions on to them. Some real hillbilly shite.
