What a practical reason?

Because if people get shitfaced drunk and thus hungover they won't go to work on the following Monday.
People do that during the middle of the week. Well, everyone I know at least.

I've ran into places where they won't sell alcohol past 2am on a weeknight. Guess they don't want people getting wasted before work the next day...
Thats most places in the U.S. Stock up for the week. That's the trick.

i can buy hard liqour or beer any time of day.

most can smoke in any bar that servers food, or casino

a new law passed last year that bans smoking in pubs that server food..but 70% dont enforce it lol..i light up all the time down the street, and eat...

i hate vegas as a city, but i guess if i moved i would miss the lax laws

funny that the laws on beer or liquor purchase vary so much between the states in the US. Some have no restrictions at all, even on sundays ( like Nevada ), others are basically "dry", and you can't even buy beer publicly ( Arkansas ).

In Germany, regular supermarkets or beverage retailers are open from Monday-Saturday, and sell all types of alcohol, beer and liquor. Regular shops are closed on sundays, but corner shops ( called Kiosks here ) and gas stations are open and sell all types of alcoholic beverages, also including hard liquor. 

no shortage here.

Interestingly, the majority of corner shops in germany ( at least those I know ) are also run by ethnic minorities or imigrants. I am mentioning this because someone said that the corner shops in London are mostly run by imigrants, too.

Strange, that in some states in the US, it seems to be more difficult to purchase alcohol, than to purchase a firearm.
