I just finished listening to an “expert” saying that closing the bars was as important as wearing a mask. He asked, “Is that so hard to do?” The answer is obviously, yes.
Attempts have been made to close bars for over 150 years in Wilmington. A short stroll down Water Street will tell how successful that fight has been.
But why? I can tell you it's not just the booze. There is more to it than that. Like the T.V. sitcom said, “Wouldn't you like to go where everyone knows your name?” I know I would. Today's topic is bars, otherwise known as saloons and sampling rooms.
