Lol! I know OK has its strange ideas, cause I try to explain that to travelers who can't get the local dry county laws. I loose them every time!

Wayne Wheeler invented single issue pressure politics and got it done.
Most dry politicians were dry in name only.

Oklahoma is really strange when it comes to liquor laws. Now they want to pass a law to allow the sale of cold "real" beer (in excess of 3.2% alcohol) in grocery stores...but won't change the law to allow the little corner package stores to sell it cold.
Can you say "Trader Joe's" wants to come to town and paid to play?
My father in law, moved him and his family to Little Kansas, Oklahoma in the 80's and he still refers to beer as 3.2 beer. " Let's go get some 3.2"
Growing up in a dry county in NC, I was very aware of a second kind of bootlegger. This was the guy who would go to legitimate liquor stores and buy his gallon limit several times a day or week or whatever. Then he would mark up the price to cover expenses and make a profit and sell said liquor out of his back door.
No age or amount limit, but you had to have cash and references.

Yep, those are to be found in the dry counties around this part of the world too
They can be found in wet counties as well. Selling to those who either can't legally purchase or who don't want anyone to see them anywhere near one of those evil sin palaces.

This is a good place for a religious joke (that Wendell will probably yank quickly). So enjoy it while it's here:
Q: What's the difference between Methodists and Baptists?
A: A Methodist will at least act like he knows you when you see him at the liquor store...:scream:
Along the same line....................why those of a couple certain religions never engage in sex while standing up. They're afraid someone might see them and think they were dancing.

Years ago we use to swap the word "drugs" for the word "love" in song lyrics as we sang along. You know like the Beatles "All you need is drugs.." 😉
Take many song titles and add the words, "under the covers". It's rather amazing what wonderful titles you get.
