Willy's Pub in Texas reopened in February, 2020 after implementing a camera and ID scanner system at the point-of-sale as well as the entrance. For the first few weeks of the semester, the pub had remained closed due to certain violations of the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission (TABC) regulations committed during an event in December of the previous year. These violations were reported at the event titled the “Last Pub of the Decade”, which led to the establishment being closed down by the authorities. An investigation was conducted by the TABC on the 6th of December, which yielded two charges – selling alcohol to a minor and allowing a minor to consume the purchased alcohol on the premises of the pub. If any similar violations occur in the future, it is very likely that Willy's Pub will be closed down and its licensed revoked permanently.
