December 5th Marks Prohibition of Prohibition; LVHRD Finds That Interesting

2006.Nov.28. Tuesday - by Lint Fleecewood

On December 5th, 1933, after a thirteen year dry spell, America revoked the liquor ban that was set in this country and officially ended the Prohibition period. LVHRD finds that interesting. Even more interesting, though, is the fact that Dewar’s, one of LVHRD’s partners, was the first alcoholic beverage available for liquor lovers to legally drink without getting hassled by the boys in blue. That’s quite a history.

Such a history, in fact, that wouldn’t it be nifty if LVHRD threw a party reminiscent of that elaborate era with libations provided by Dewar’s Scotch? Back in that period, crime was rampant and gang lords didn’t step out their front doors without their trustiest henchmen by their side. Another key detail was all the wholesome institutions in the daytime that turned into raucous, romper rooms at night. It was certainly a tumultuous time, one filled with Flappers and tommy guns.

Wouldn’t it be something if LVHRD threw a party like that now and invited today’s modern day gang leaders, leaders in various industries around town who help keep the festive spirit alive? It would be something, wouldn’t it? Too bad it won’t happen, though…or will it? Who knows?
