Crap.

This is awful. It was a great place. I really hope that he rebuilds.

1. Damn, that is awful

Unless, of course, you had a really cool costume out on rental - then it is saved.

2. Mrs. XNASA just bought a rubber chicken there last week.

And now it's gone.

I hope that this wasn't some kind of Halloween prank.

4. Her rubber chicken is gone? n/t

6. I hope not.

What am I gonna use to choke later on?

:shrug:

3. What a horrible time for it to burn down, too.

Do we have any idea how it happened yet?

5. Nothing that I've heard except that....

The owner went back around 8:45 do get something, or do something and smelled smoke.

30 minutes later the flames were 30 feet high.

I'm saddened by it. And so are a lot of others. It was a cool place to spend 30 minutes on a lazy Saturday afternoon.
