This is a local liquor store a couple of towns away. I remember seeing the commercials in college, but I never actually stopped in until a couple of years ago. I don’t really ever make the trek there, but the prices and selection weren’t that bad, as for the polka music and singing well see for yourself…

You know, Dennis, it wasn’t the singing so much as the occasional barking that got to us.
