I remember walking into a Chipotle outside of Westerville and seeing Corona for sale there and being totally shocked.

I have a feeling the happiest people about the recent relaxation of the laws are the students at Otterbein College.

And, just for fun, proof that Westerville took its former status as "The Dry Capital of the World" seriously. From Wikipedia: "Twice, in 1875 and 1879, businessman Henry Corbin opened a saloon in Westerville, and each time the townspeople blew up his establishment with gunpowder."

Whoa.
my sister just graduated from otterbein and she was telling me how everyone at the school was excited it was not a "dry" city anymore.
Go Falcons!
Roll Along!
