At the time age was 18/19 where I lived while 21 in WA.
LOL Jon, RA was implying that the laws were so weakly enforced that it didn't matter what the drinking age was.

21 here always, but you could go across the border to Ohio or WV & get grandfathered in. We found pictures in our scrapbooks from the 70's of formals that had been in New York State and didn't get it...until we thought about it. "Oh. Lower drinking age. Duh."
