after my time in utah, i have decided the mormons must be in cahoots with big tobacco. they certainly aren't nice to the alcohol industry. beer must be less than 3.2% alcohol, unless you buy it at the state liquor store. in a regular bar, you can only get beer. at a restaurant with a liquor license you can get beer or wine or mixed drinks. but to go to a "bar" that serves liquor, you have to go to a private club and pay a membership fee. and even then, you can only get a single ounce of liquor at a time. no doubles. you have to finish the first drink before you order the next. it was a long 9 days in utah. drinking that beer just made my stomach hurt.
as for tobacco, you can smoke inside bars and restaurants. i don't really remember the last time i had to request the non-smoking section in a restaurant. after having dinner one night, i had to go for a hike the next day to de-smokify my pants. and at the airport, they had smoking lounges in every concourse (lucky for me, i had the time to check out all the concourses). these smoking lounges didn't even have doors, they were just rooms off the main hallway like any of the other shop. it was strange, since i knew i couldn't even get drunk if i went to the airport bar.
mormons are strange.
