I'm in Ohio, and that's not correct. Last call for alcohol has never been before 2am (bar time or otherwise). IME, as a member of various bands over the years who have played in Ohio bars, last call is at or right before 2:15. The last set ordinarily doesn't end until 2am. While it wouldn't bother me, many bandmates look forward to that last drink after playing wraps up. All drinks must be pulled no later than 2:30am, at which time they'll herd patrons pretty swiftly toward the exits. If the band is not playing back to back gigs and has to tear down, they are considered employed by the bar for that night and are not required to leave by 2:30, and neither is any guest or friend who may be "helping" (think roadie, DD, a patron waiting for an Uber...). The times I gave are bar times, which, it's fairly standard to be 10 minutes ahead, very occasionally 15. That gives bar employees 10 minutes in real time to get people out the door by 2:30. But, again, in my experience, they won't fine if a patron is still inside at 2:30. They will fine if drinks are being consumed after 2:30 actual time. Just my two cents and imhoo.
