I agree with everything you said other than the "age to be present". I am not aware of any SC law that state age requirements to be present in various establishments. Are there?

The point about the Coke was that I doubt that you would be asked to leave under that situation without an ID which was infered by the notion that you would be asked to leave if you had no ID. Further, does the law specify that you must be 21 or any age for that matter to enter a bar or that you...

I understand and I agree. thanks

Well now... who'd of thunk it... lol If it wouldn't be too much trouble would you site me the section of the law where this can be found... I believe it would be in Title 61 - Alcohol and Alcoholic Beverages

YES! The problem I had was that the "manager", who I think should know the difference between "law and policy", clearly did not and only perpetuated the miss-information to her staff. Her perported knowledge of the law outside of the workplace exasperated the sitiuation and was detrimental to...

THANK YOU! Being aware of the "stop and identify" statutes in many states as well as South Carolina, was instrumental in prompting my question on this site. I was also aware that it wasn't mandatory to "card" which was clearly not understood by the restaurant/bar manager I spoke with and also...

Yes. I agree completely. The issue I am trying to resove is if it is, strictly and specifically, according to South Carolina law, illegal to be in possesion of a drink without having proof of age. Seems like an obvious answer but as I have learned in my "old age", things are not always obvious...

Absolutely... As I'm sure you noticed I indicated South Carolina in the "Jurisdiction" field... And thank you also for not questing my question.

I'm not aware of a law that says you can't have a Coke in a bar without having/showing ID. I would think you coud be asked to leave for a meriad of reasons but that doesn't really answer my question. Detained or arrested..... Is this the law in South Carolina? If so, would you be willing to...

See my response to Highwayman.....

I sometimes simply smile and say, "Never mind, bring me iced tea." Waiter says, "Are you sure?" I say, "Quite sure, thank you for asking." Sometimes I simply say, "Never mind, I'll go elsewhere." Life is about choices mate. No one can make you show ID to purchase or be served an adult...

Mostly for information, to get the facts and know more about SC law. I have had a conversation with the manager at the local Buffalo Wild Wings and she was full of miss-information which got me thinking..... Since it not a law to carry your ID with you in SC, what if I didn't have my ID, went...

Must I be in possesion of a valid form of ID to consume alcohol in a bar or restaurant? Of course this assumes that I was served a drink without being asked for my ID.
