Description
Ever had your late night revels ended abruptly by the bartender announcing last call just before 2 a.m. here in the Bay Area?
If this strikes a chord, you’re not alone.
California’s 2 a.m. last call frustrates a lot of people. KQED listener Tara Downey even gets a little embarrassed by it when out-of-town friends visit.
“I have friends that live in New York, and so when they come back here it’s a little bit of a shock to them,” she explained. “They’re kind of like ‘OK, where do we go next?’ And… there’s not really an answer for that. We go home.”
Now she wants to know why last call is so early in San Francisco compared to other big cities.
