Sevier County, Arkansas (where I grew up) is a dry county; however, the
country club was allowed to serve alcoholic beverages.  The fact that
only the "outstanding" citizens belonged apparently had nothing to do
with it :-). 

Oklahoma (and the bars) were only eight miles west.  The sheriff's
department on Saturdays set up roadblocks on US 70 and did a very good
business. 

Also, Henderson State Univ. and Ouachita Baptist Univ.  are located in
another dry Arkansas county.  To get alcohol, the students drove 30
miles to Hot Springs county ...
