Many years ago, a friend then attending the U. of Alabama took me out
to eat at a quaint little place called the Cotton Patch, just over the
Mississippi border.  According to the liquor laws and local custom, no
booze was permitted in open view, but it was perfectly acceptable to
bring-your-own (in a brown bag, of course) and for the restaurant to
sell set-ups.  I have still not seen a more concentrated collection of
brown bags than I saw sitting on tables that night, even in some of
New York City's seedier neighborhoods.
