(n.) A county in the United States in which the sale of alcohol is entirely
prohibited by law.
Though the antonym of dry county is technically a wet county, most counties that permit the sale of alcohol have varying legal limitations set on the sale of alcohol, so that the "
wetness" or "
dryness" of a county can be somewhat relative.
Can you believe this is actually a dry county?! I didn't think those even
existed anymore, I had to go to
the next town just to by
a stupid beer.
