I don't know about this idea that the curb is the limit of legal open containers. How about when they have an affair in the square? Whether it's a speech or a festival. How far does the "border" go then? Nobody bothers anyone sitting at a table. The vendors are selling the adult beverages in the street, itself.

I went to hear Mark Rubio give a speech prior to his election to the Senate in the Barnes & Noble parking lot and they were selling drinks THERE!! People were drinking all over the place.

The limits of this "law" seems very ill defined.
