Limitation On Alcohol Around Bear Butte

Due to the rapid growth of new mega biker bars around Bear Butte legislators are trying to introduce legislation that would limit the alcohol licenses around Bear Butte during Sturgis 2007. For the past few years Native Americans have protested near Bear Butte biker bars and parties with alcohol so close to what Native Americans consider sacred. In an effort to contain the growth of bars closer to Bear Butte these limits would prohibit new bars and alcohol sales.
