That's too bad. Lots of neet stuff that will be hard to replace in there. HOpe he was insured well.

I've never been up there, but I'm thinking they wont have any problems funding the second one

[etcswjoe]

Never been, but sorry to see it go, prayers to the owners.

 

I suppose Ty Pennington can build them a new one like he did in Wild Hogs.

[slowrollwv]

I have been in there and it is very crowded during bike week. Sorry to see it go. I think it will be back bigger and better.

Meet one of the co-owners a few years back in Las Vegas. He was there surveying and talking with folks there to open a "branch" of their sallon there. Dont know if they ever got it done. Gilley's had a huge fire a few years after their hay day, they did not suffer to badly.

Hate to see it as I have been told lots of net stuff was in there and probably not replaceable. But financially if he wasn't insured, shame on him. They just had their "cash cow" days and have lots of time to rebuild. Shoot the guberment even has "free money" to help small business like his to update.
