managers of several popular bars in
Five F'oints.
"This legislation is from all the
drunk driving accidents. But it's going
to cause more kids to drink in their
cars because they can't get in a bar,"
said Loretta Bryant, manager of
Group therapy for the past years.
Bryant said underage students
would find some way to buy beer, but
drink in their cars, creating more problems.
This opinion was shared by the
managers interviewed.

If someone has had too much to drink,
we offer to call a cab and pay for it or
we convince them to stop drinking. I
personally think that raising the drinking
age will lead to more problems,"
said Steve Gibson, manager of
Rockafellas*.
Gibson, like several bar managers,
was sorry to sec the 18- and 19-yearolds
lose their drinking privilege.
"I was sorry to see the kids go. They
had been well-behaved folks. That
sounds sugar-caotcd but they were a
nice group of people. We had more
problems with the older drinkers, on
the whole, than with those folks. And
we didn't have many problems," Gibson
said.
All of the bar managers maintained
that raising the drinking age would not
affect their business for the worse. In

Rockafellas', which features live
music, will gear toward an older
crowd.
"We don't have bands now that
traditionally attracted a younger
crowd," Gibson said.
The managers were surprised at the
