Sad to hear. Losing a great place really hurts.

Best wishes to the owner and staff on their futures.

What is the deal giving only one day notice!!?

This thread and Facebook has been going for some time.

Quoted from Yoko2una:

the difference one hour makes...

I've often thought of that about my business. I'd rather die then turn the lights off for the last time. That has to hurt.

Quoted from Lethal_Inc:

Can't you just find another place that is more affordable?

Not always easy. You have to find another place. Then find out the zoning ordinances, etc. if you could relocate there. You have to find out if your licenses can be transferred to the new place, or if you have to start over.

And then there is moving costs, setting up the new place for outlets, decor, signage, etc. etc.

And you are basically opening a new business. Starting over. The owner might be at a place in life where that isn't desirable or possible.

And this may be the trend in the area, keep raising rent every new lease. So you may be faced with the same crap again in the future.

No. Four levelers on bottom of cabinet and obvious control panel bulge sticking up. Video game of some sort.

Quoted from BeaglePuss:

I see a blue light gun in the pic.

Looks like it is hooked to the MK2 cabinet, maybe a conversion ?

The one laying down kind of looks like Tekken art work.

... and there's the MKII... with light guns.

Now it's a Police Force.

Quoted from Shredso:

Can you imagine how much money the owner of the building is losing if it's sitting unoccupied? Maybe he should have stuck with a reliable tenant with an established business.

I've seen this time and time again. Raise rent until an established tenant leaves. And then stands empty.

They don't seem to care. Higher rent or nothing.
