If you miss your favorite bartender, have we got news for you.

On Wednesday, the governor announced that bars will be back in business on October 14.

But things won't be 100% back to normal just yet, as they are only allowed to open at half capacity after being closed since June.

Texans have shown that we can contain the spread of #COVID19 by following health protocols and guidelines.

In addition to this, businesses like amusement parks, movie theaters, zoos, aquariums, and bowling alleys can now expand operations to 75% capacity.

Safety protocols are required to continue, such as wearing a mask and social distancing.

In bars, all customers have to be seated while eating and drinking inside.

This announcement comes just days after Abbott teased the reopening in a tweet.

Texas has reported 777,556 total cases of COVID-19 as of Wednesday.
