From what I understand, it's a law in New Jersey that requires that setup. I know for a fact that in the State of Mass they can't even give away 1 free drink, because it's against the law in that state.

The state wants to collect its sales tax, and there is no tax on free. So they outlawed free drinks to make more money.
