It’s more the fact that it’s illegal and the bar could get themselves shut down if authorities knew they were selling alcohol to underage people.
yeah, exactly this! it's not the fact that Kaci drank alcohol - she obviously drinks at parties and at home, and i really don't see it as an issue. it's the fact that she chose to share in her stories that she was drinking a cocktail while at a bar, and then made a point of tagging the bar - who then reshared her story, possibly not aware she is underage if she used fake ID. it all just seems a bit stupid, because although she is almost 18 and it's pretty normal for 16/17 year old to drink alcohol, it is illegal and "but she's
almost 18" isn't an excuse that will help the bar justify serving alcohol to minors if they
were to be prosecuted.
it wasn't Kaci having alcohol that bothered me - it was the fact she was happy to risk the bar being shut down or at least facing consequences if the authorities were aware they were serving alcohol to under 18s - not really worth the risk and if i had been served at 17, i wouldn have been sharing it all over IG - especially on such a huge public platform, where everyone was aware of my age - and potentially jeopardise the reputation/future of a business all for the sake of content.
