In Indiana you can only buy 3 cases of beer at a time. You can walk out of the store and go back in and buy another 3 cases all day long. No alcohol sales on Sundays, but you can get drinks at bars and restraunts (I can't spell that word). </font>
I lived in Fort Wayne, then Chicago, then in South Bend from 1988-93. I remember that a bar/restaurant needed to have a percentage or $ volume of food sales to qualify as a bona-fide restaurant in order to get a Sunday liquor license. Sunday curfew was midnight or 12:30 vs. 3AM 6 nights a week. I remember a neighborhood dive on East State St. with a red neon sign, "OPEN AT 7 AM," which was earliest legal opening time.
But the most surprising Hoosier law was that a DRIVER was allowed to drink a beer or cocktail behind the wheel of a car!
Finally, a statewide Open Container Law was passed to start Jan. 1, 1994.
