After breaking many rules, a local bar in Illinois finally had to pay the consequences with a suspended liquor license.

Worst Day Of The Year To Have Liquor License Suspended In Illinois

It may vary from year to year but for 2023, I believe that St. Patrick's Day would be the worst day for a bar to have its liquor license suspended. I know the Wednesday before Thanksgiving and New Year's Eve are huge drinking nights but they are during the holidays so you have other commitments.

St. Patrick's Day is an adult holiday. There's no getting together with family. It's all about corned beef and green beer. Plus, this year it lands on a Friday, which doesn't happen very often. Many people will take the day off or at least leave work early to start boozing. Oh yeah, and the NCAA basketball tournament is going on too. If you want to make a lot of extra money in just one day. Sign up to be an Uber driver.

The city had enough and suspended their license for two days and charged them a $250 fine. Hopefully, they learned from their mistakes.
