What country are you in? I ask because, that is not true anywhere in the United States. There may be places that don't card you if you're with a parent, but that doesn't mean it is legal.

I've *HEARD* that it's true in Wisconsin. In fact, my best friend from highschool's brother got married when he was 20 and his wife was 21, and from what she said, they could take their marriage license into a bar with them, and since she was of age, and his legal gardian, he could drink with her permission.

Now, like I said, though - 2nd hand story, I don't know how much stock I'd put in it.

No, it is not a matter of carding. It is a matter of a loophole in a law. I live in Louisiana, we are pretty good at those. You see Louisiana was the last state to adopt the legal age of 21 but after threatening to cut our federal funding lawmakers gave in, but left a few loopholes in the laws, such as the fact if you are 18 and accompanied by your parents you can legally drink. For this reason, we even have two different legal driving limits, one if you are 18 and one if you are 21, I do not know what they are.

This is, in fact, true in wisconsin. I can go into any bar in wisconsin that is incorparted in wisconsin. If the company was started somewhere else, it is illegal. But bars will take down my parents info of their liscense, and mine, and keep it for records if a cop would at all question it.
