Mt Ephraim NJ – This week the Fantasy Showbar building was demolished to make room for a new Taco Bell.

 Even if you\’ve never set foot in the building, everyone in the area knew of the Fantasy Showbar. Its large and somewhat graphically worded front roadside sign made it very clear what was going on inside. Some, like me, remember when it was originally a Thom McCann shoe store.

But what many don\’t realize, is it was also the battleground for a legal case that made its way to the Supreme Court in 1981. Considering only about 80 cases are heard by the Supreme Court, and another 50 are decided without hearing arguments… it\’s amazing that this small town case made it so far.

 We have been buying their light ale but that has now come to a screeching halt.

Just think, if the original Sam Adams had been this cowardly then we would still be part of socialist Great Britain and surrendering to the islamists.
