Rumors has it: Where most Bellingham DUI offenders had their last drink

Brianna Gibbs // THE WESTERN FRONT

In 2010, more impaired drivers said they had their last drink at Rumors Cabaret, in downtown Bellingham, than any other restaurant or bar in the county, KGMI is reporting.

The Washington State Liquor Control Board recently released a list saying 38 people who were arrested for a DUI in 2010 told police they had their last drink at Rumors.

Just behind Rumors, 30 people said they had their last drink at The Royal Inn.

While this might not surprise some Western students familiar with the Bellingham nightlife, Sheriff Bill Elfo says most DUI problems actually come from casinos in Whatcom County.

Behind The Royal Inn, 19 people said they had their last drink before getting a DUI at the Silver Reef Casino, in Whatcom County.
