Was that at a bar or at a store?
Blue laws are mostly dumb. Until recently, all beer in NWA was purchased at liquor stores only. That had more to do with the local liquor mafia lobby than anything. Now you can buy beer at gas stations and grocery stores.
I know when I lived in Dallas, liquor stores closed at 9:00pm.
When I was in college, Fayetteville liquor stores closed at 11:00 pm, but Springdale ones stayed open until midnight. Like 5 minutes away. I made many late runs to Springdale for beer back then.

It was a liquor store. It was one of those crappy 1130 Jefferson Pilot kick-offs and we had drank most of our beer on the drive over. Now I stay up near the airport and buy it on the way to the game.
And honestly, Fayetteville should have made this list, it is my favorite SEC away destination.
