WICHITA (AP) – The possible revival of happy hour in Kansas is drawing cheers from bar owners and a shrug from law enforcement, at least in one city.

Kansas abolished happy hour in 1985, prohibiting bars from offering temporary specials on drinks.

Now, both the state House and Senate have passed bills allowing bar owners to change prices throughout the day.

Brad Williams, owner of the Alibi Room in Wichita’s Old Town, tells The Wichita Eagle he’s eager for the change. Williams says 5 to 7 p.m. is a slow period when his bar could use a boost.

Sedgwick County Sheriff Robert Hinshaw says he’s not especially concerned about happy hour. If people are going to drink to excess, Hinshaw says, the price of the drink doesn’t usually make a difference.
