Hi y'all - I've just spoken with the owner of the Chili's frachise and he directed me to the Shelby County website stating that a local ordinance requires all customers to provide ID in Shelby County. He did apologize for not accepting my valid ID without photo and will change his policy.
I copy the relevant ordinance: 1. The Beer Board consists of five (5) members and has the exclusive power and authority to issue, suspend and revoke beer permits, and impose monetary penalties for establishments located within the unincorporated areas, subject to review by the courts. 2. All owners and employees of establishments selling or serving alcoholic beverages must have read, and be familiar with, all rules and regulations of the Beer Board. 3. Owner or applicant must notify the Beer Board of any change in his home address within ten (10) days of any such change. 4. Proof of legal age is required of ALL customers before any alcoholic beverages are served or sold to such persons. If any legal brains are watching please correct me - it would seem that this ordinance only applies to the unincorporated parts of Shelby County. If not, then every restaurant in Memphis should be demanding proof of age from every customer. Unchilled.
