don't follow the arrow

 

Prior to the 1960s one had to know a bootlegger to buy beer in Lubbock County.  Then a few precincts went "wet" -- notably "the Strip"-- but package stores sprang up along other roads.  I don't know what the Imperial Package store was named originally but it's location wasn't ideal -- especially when Lubbock voted to sell liquor everywhere in 2009.  One could readily pick up a six pack at Walmart or CVS without driving all the way out East 19th Street until it became County Road 6700.  The sign remains but there's nothing imperial about the empty, weedy building.
