\nIn an extended hours area, a person may not consume or possess with intent to consume an alcoholic beverage in a public place:<\/p>\n\n
\n
\n
\n
\nYes, with the exception that a local distributor permittee may not sell or deliver any liquor on days a package store permittee is prohibited from selling liquor. [Section 105.02]<\/a><\/p>\n
\nIn the fall when the time changes at 2:00 a.m., licensees and permittees may sell for an additional hour because the legal time is 1:00 a.m., instead of 2:00 a.m., at that point in time. In the spring, when Day Light Savings Time takes place, the legal time is 3:00 a.m. when the time changes. Technically, no one should be publicly consuming or selling alcoholic beverages at that time. TABC agents have traditionally given patrons the 15 minutes they have under the extended hours definition to consume the remainder of the drinks legally purchased before 2:00 a.m.<\/p>\n
\nYes. There are no laws against selling alcohol on election day.<\/p>\n
