Most people do drive out of town to go eat at restaurants in Fort o NOT because they sell alcohol but because all we have here in Lafayette is fast food. All the big chains are out of town. Mcdonalds, Mexican, and Chinese food gets old. I do not think liquor by the drink will change anything economy wise. Why would it? These Mexican restaurants saying they get costumers walk out, well they are ALWAYS busy I dont see their doors closing anytime soon because they have good food. Its also a religious issue. Drinking does alter judgment and can become habit forming. I vote no!
