I'd be lined up at the door. The first thing that came to mind when things closed down, was the bars. My god, no bar to go to...for weeks? I could see people hanging in the kitchen or the liquor room...just like where we did lines. And, if you were good with the local cops, you could get away with it. If given a choice..it would've been 'we all die some day'. That is the essence of the selfishness of an alcoholic/addict. You can't think of others when you don't think at all.
