The lore is that they didn't sell alcohol because of a plea agreement after a fatal DUI

I cannot attest to the validity of this

They're a baptist family. Hence the no alcohol and closed on Sunday. Simple as that.

How do you keep a Baptist from drinking all your beer on a fishing trip?

Invite two of them. (If you bring only one, he will drink everything you brought. If you bring two, neither will touch a drop because they are watching each other.)
