I was at a packed bar on Whyte Ave in Edmonton and it went off without a hitch. The police showed up for a few minutes and then left.
I definitely agree with revamping the liquor laws though. I can smoke as much as I want and gamble as much as I want but I can only drink during appropriate times. It seems odd and does cause problems with closing times.
Although, I don't see it affecting me all that often. I had a few pints watching the game which was great but it does affect your day and I was pretty bagged by the end of the day.
The people I feel bad for is shift workers. They work a midnight shift but can't go for a beer at the end of the shift.
