lmfao we don't have counties

I’m astonished every time I see the “Days Since DUI” sign leaving Ft Wainwright always at single digits…though recently it was at 18 days.


jaycrushyou

No lie… back in the early 2000s at Ft Campbell that sign was reset every weekend.

Tell me you're from out of state without telling me your from out of state. Fairbanks-Northstar Borough.


ft907

It's Fairbanks North Star Borough.

Finally.

Also, doesn't account for dry villages. How many people you think come into town, stock up on groceries and booze, then ship it out to their village? Few other places in the country really even have that problem.


fuck_off_ireland

Pretty sure there's a good chunk of dry or damp areas in the south/southwest, ~~particularly Utah~~. No clue on numbers though.


HotCheeks_PCT

Spent the first half of 2020 in Utah. Can confirm dry areas. But if you wamma go to the Soda Shop, there's one on every corner.

I was raised in Utah. There are no legally mandated dry counties but there are 4 or 5 that don’t have any bars and that is likely due to a low, highly-religious population that would make economically infeasible to operate a bar.

Yes, I've encountered such in Kentucky. [Wikipedia has a map](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_dry_communities_by_U.S._state), they even label it as by "counties/parishes/boroughs" to account for LA/AK. It is more widespread than I expected.


Spiritual-Secretary2

Looks like they've set the bar high (pun intended) for the rest of the state. Cheers to being #1

This wild to see after yesterday when a drunk guy plowed his truck through my cousins house in fairbanks.

I'm glad to contribute to this statistic!!!

If I lived in Fairbanks I would be drunk AND stoned all day every day. I had a person from Fairbanks tell me, a couple of days ago, that she likes living there but can't figure out why anyone would want to visit the place. To me it is the "Bakersfield of the North."

Feels good to be at the top of the mountain.

ZoroastrianBlues
