When I was 18, (after the Revolutinary War ...) Pennsylvania was 21. But since NJ is right across the bridge, we all would go there is all. LMAO!

When my husband went to college in Pennsylvania (during the Revolutionary War) he crossed a state border to drink at 18. I don't remember which one. That little "legal drinking" thing was probably responsible for the "shoot out" he and one of his friends had in front of the girl's dorm. They hid in the bushes and watched the cops show up. One of his favorite, albeit somewhat blurry, college memories.
