It was probably a mystique and availability. Back in the early to mid 70’s Coors wasn’t available in the Houston area, while it was plentiful and relatively cheap in Dallas where I lived. On the weekends, we would load up our car with as much Coors as we could afford and drive down to the beach and make enough profit to pay for the whole weekend.
