It’s a state where if you are under 21, all you have to do is find someone to be your “Dad” or “Mom” for the night and then any bar can serve you. I was able to drink there underaged because of that.
Most bars will still ask for some form of ID. My parents let me drink with them when I turned 18 and bartenders/servers would almost always check my ID to make sure our last name matched. And it's up to the proprietors, some bars will refuse.
In Ohio, at least, we won't server to anyone under 21, even with their parents. The parents have to place the order, recieve the order, and pay for the order. The under can't do any of those parts or it's illegal.
That’s the same in Texas
