University Park or Bob Jones University? The Booze Controversy.

|

If I want to fill this wine glass, I have to leave U.P. to do it. And you want to keep it that way?

Parkies are buzzing after receiving a pre-recorded phone message from ex University Park mayor, Roy Coffee.  It seems he’s passionate about the beer and wine propositions on the ballot this November. I didn’t get the call but others tell me  Roy urges residents to vote against (and peeps are paraphrasing here) because it will ruin University Park and it’s only being pushed by the handful of citizens standing to profit.

I’m beginning to feel like I live on the Bob Jones campus. I’m just sayin’.

UPDATE: Listen to Roy’s mission below.
