selling liquor at hippie shows...

With the many many show i have lined up for myself this summer money is gonna be kind of tight..So i'm thinking about ways to pay for it as i go, and i was thinking about buying a few cases of airplane bottle liquor and trying to sell it in the parking lot at shows. People seem to make alot of money just by selling cold beer so i'm thinking selling liquor would be even better. Sort of like jello shots except people would have more of selection to choose from(plus everyone loves those neat little airplane bottles heheh)...they also rock because they are easy to sneak in for a mid show snack...you cant do that with jello shots..well i guess you could but who the hell wants to carry jello shots around in their pockets??
Anyways, i'm wondering if anyone has ever seen people doing this and how well it worked. Or if you havent seen it being done before and you go to alot of jamband shows, do you think people would be intrested in buying these things for 2 or 3 dollars a piece?

Never seen mini liquor bottles. Seen people selling shots of Yager(sp?) that shit is sick but warms you up nicely. I think ide buy one of those little bottles for no more than a dollar if i can get a dank beer for $2.

that's a very good idea, so was the response about selling cigs. I'm guessing both would be illegal without some sort of license or whatever.
I would buy liquor or beer in a parking lot at an event.

buy a case and try it out, even if it doesn't work you'll still have the liquor.
edit: wow this is old.
