At some establishments, if you wanted to drink any alcohol, you had to bring your own. This is, in large part, due to Pennsylvania’s notorious liquor laws that have led to reduced sales thanks to outrageously expensive and hard-to-come-by licenses that limit the number of operators who can serve booze. But things are starting to shift.
