Morgantown and Butler County are dry meaning no alcohol sales are allowed. Bowling Green is the closest city that allows alcohol sales.

Connect

By phone

Most telephone numbers in Morgantown, and in the rest of Butler County, consist of +1 270 plus a seven-digit number, but the area is now served by an overlay complex of two area codes, with +1 364 being the second. A local or in-state telephone call now requires all 10 digits of the local number be dialed (omitting just the leading +1 from a local landline call).

Signage on many established businesses may still display the original seven-digit numbers; dial 270 before these if no area code is indicated.

gollark: It seems like the alternative to "people invest in memes from their firms" would just be to have people blindly invest in anything you flag as "going to be popular" here, which... doesn't seem better? And would actually be quite like the old days of MemeBot.

gollark: Eh, not really. You just said something like "it is to stop firms pinging their members when they post a meme".
