For the first time in Oklahoma history, you can stop by your local grocery store and grab a bottle of wine or an ice cold can of strong beer.

Every Friday we will show you stories from the 70s, 80s, 90s and beyond.

Today's Flashback Friday is for all the beer lovers out there as reporter Mark Becker takes us all back to November 14, 1982 and introduces us to two guys who loved collecting beer cans.
