Laura Varney, 23, of Columbia, picked up a bottle of Jagermeister at Morganelli’s.
Her boyfriend sometimes has trouble saving beer from Saturday for Sunday, so she supports the referendum.
“I love it, of course,” she said. “I don’t see why not. It’s kind of like enforcement of the Bible Belt, the whole blue law thing and I’m kind of eager to see that kind of stuff go out.”

The 42-year-old watch manager at Weymouth fire station said he went to hospital for X-rays, which came back clear but “there must have been something [in the X-rays] they didn’t like, some sort of shadow”.
Following the scan, doctors broke the news to Mr Phillips, from Broadwey in Weymouth, that he had terminal lymphatic cancer throughout his body.
He has been told there is no cure and has between five and eight years to live.
“It is absolutely horrendous,” he said.
“You initially think that’s it, I have been given a death sentence, I am going to die.”
Mr Phillips took part in a free Macmillan Cancer Care six-week course, Living with cancer, to help him cope.

This guy was only going 5 MPH.
“The guy didn’t stop,” Prather said. “He was so impaired he didn’t even know police were behind him.”
Attempts to stop the Suburban using spike strips failed and the car sideswiped another vehicle, Prather said. No one was injured. Prather said officers from the Williamson County Sheriff’s Office and Spring Hill Police Department became involved in the pursuit.
“It continues on and we were probably doing 5 miles per hour,” Prather said. “He eventually stopped in the middle of the road, then he started driving again.”
Vanhousin eventually stopped again. This time Prather got out of his car, walked up to the Suburban and removed the keys from the ignition.
Prather said crack cocaine was found in the vehicle, which turned out to be stolen from a collision repair center where Vanhousin worked.
