Booze...

Would you like a pint with your popcorn?
Gov. Cuomo, in his latest State of the State, wants to allow the sale of wine, beer and spirits in movie theaters across the state.

Under the proposal, movie houses would be permitted to sell alcoholic beverages to adults attending movies rated PG-13 or higher and customers could then enjoy the drink at their seat. Past efforts to legalize liquor sales in theaters have stalled.

A similarly spirited measure from the governor that would have allowed beer and wine sales was shot down in 2017.

Theater owners toasted the booze-y move, saying it would be a boon for smaller operators and could boost craft brews and wines made in the Empire State.

It all about the taxes.
