South Carolina has its share of unique laws. Until recently, South Carolina was the last remaining state in the nation to make bars pour cocktails using mini-bottles of alcohol. South Carolina also prevents alcohol sales past 7PM, and only recently passed a bill allowing alcohol sales on Sunday. South Carolina also allows smoking indoors, but allows individual cities and counties to make their own rules.
