Weird laws in the USA Illinois part 4: Later Saturday Night Tavern Hours

Later Saturday Night Tavern Hours

Except for gambling towns like Las Vegas and Atlantic City where casinos serve alcohol 24 hours a day, Chicago has the latest Saturday night closing time for a tavern — 5 a.m. — than any other city in the nation.

(Many cities match Chicago’s 4 a.m. closing time during the week, however.) Approximately 150 taverns in Chicago have 4 a.m./5 a.m. liquor licenses, a number that has held steady for the past few decades.

Weird laws in the USA Illinois part 3: The Movies You Watched Were Censored.

The Movies You Watched Were Censored
From 1907-1984, every movie that played in a Chicago movie theatre had to receive an “OK” from the Chicago Film Review Board.

The Film Review Board was operated by the Chicago Police Department and its board members generally consisted of widows and orphans of Chicago police officers. Sometimes the Board recommended edits to films, sometimes films were banned entirely, like the original version of “Scarface.”

It opened in theaters nationwide in early 1932 but didn’t play in a Chicago theatre until late in 1942. It seems the film Board didn’t like the way Chicago was portrayed. The Board was disbanded in 1984 because it had become irrelevant in the face of rigorous film industry self-regulation (a rating system).

Weird laws in the USA Illinois part 2: Can’t Buy a Car on a Sunday

In 1984, at the behest of the Chicago Automobile Trade Association, the Illinois legislature passed a weird Chicago law that forbade auto dealers in the state from opening for business on Sundays.

Why? The dealers say they wanted a day for their employees to be with families and not have to worry about stolen sales from other dealers that decided to stay open on that day. The ban on car sales on Sundays is still in effect throughout Illinois. Because many other retailers are now open seven days a week, one can only wonder why auto dealers need to be singularly protected.
