Fucking forreal I passed through Texas to pick up a friend from DFW and stopped at a few Costco's looking for some vodka, I thought I was just in shitty counties but nope! Chuck Testa!

It's an old meme, but it checks out.

I haven't been to Costco in Texas, what's wrong with them?

[โ€“] dandroid@dandroid.app 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

There is a law in Texas where a publicly traded company can't sell their own name brand liquor, so Costco can't sell Kirkland liquor. Wine is fine, but no spirits.

Wow, that's so stupid. Wonder which politician that regulation benefited.

The state of freedom, and we don't even have the freedom to choose to buy liquor on Sundays. We have such dumb alcohol laws here. We're not as bad as Utah, but it's still so bad.

For the uninitiated, what's wrong with Costco in Texas?
