As someone who came of age during the period where the age was raised from 18 to 19 and then to 21 (first increase grandfathered in those who were legal while the second just shut out everyone who was not already 21), I saw far more binge drinking take place when it went to 21.
Raising the age to 21 really didn't make things 'better' in terms of protecting 'children' from the evil bottles...
