Definition
A rumrunner is someone who illegally smuggles alcohol, especially during the Prohibition era in the United States (1920-1933). They often used fast boats and hidden routes to transport liquor from international waters or other countries. Rumrunners were often seen as rebellious figures, defying unjust laws. 🚢 Think pirates, but with booze instead of treasure. The profession was dangerous, involving encounters with law enforcement and rival gangs. It's a colorful piece of American history.
