Allow alcohol sales at Alamo Hall,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
Texas Land Commissioner 's plan to allow the sale of alcohol at private events at Alamo Hall understandably provokes some emotional opposition,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Countless men on sides from the fight for Texas independence lost their lives around the Alamo grounds,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
The resting host to the Alamo's fallen defenders - never documented - likely is in the area. From its days as Mission San Antonio de Valero,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the grounds of the Alamo served like a grave for Native Americans.
An indication from the Daughters from the Republic of Texas still greets all visitors in the entrance towards the Alamo chapel,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], reminding them that they do indeed tread on hallowed ground. People who enter are requested to impress be quiet. Cellphone me is prohibited. Gentlemen are asked to get rid of their hats.
But Alamo Hall,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], built in 1922,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], is not the Alamo chapel. Nor is it even inside the boundaries of the 1836 fortress.
Alamo Hall is on less hallowed ground than Alamo Plaza,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], where - during Fiesta parades - beer is routinely sold and consumed,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], clowns perform and Fiesta royalty is called on by jovial crowds to show off their shoes.
The occasional use of alcohol based drinks at private events locked in Alamo Hall is not going to undermine the sacredness from the Alamo,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. We're not planning to turn the Alamo in to the next group of "The Hangover" movie franchise,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Patterson held a news conference on Friday to clarify there'd be no "beer machine within the chapel,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]."
The ability to serve alcohol at Alamo Hall receptions has the possibility to raise needed revenues for Alamo conservation projects. This isn't,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], however,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], fundamentally an issue about money,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and it certainly isn't about compromising the sanctity from the Alamo to get it. Those compromises were made long ago once the merchants and tradesman of a growing city set up shop around San Antonio's most famous landmark.
