Myrtle could make an ass load themselves legalizing gambling but they tend to be really slow about vices. Like I remember when bars could only serve airplane bottles. Dumbest thing I've ever seen.
Pretty certain the airplane bottles were to prevent bars/restaurants from refilling fifths with bootleg rotgut booze.

I never thought of that but even if that was the rationale they were the only state in the country doing it. But South Carolina Republicans thought they were just smarter than everyone else like that.

For me the low point in pre-liquor by the drink North Carolina was when two SBI agents arrested a stewardess on a Piedmont Flight coming from out of state to land in Charlotte. The SBI agents waited until they believed they were in North Carolina "airspace," ordered a mixed drink on the plane, and arrested the stewardress when she served it. What an utter waste of resources. While simultaneous with this was all sorts of illegal stuff (gambling & liquor by the drink) at facilities serving the Pinehurst golf courses. The key difference was Piedmont Airlines wasn't greasing the pockets of legislative leaders.
