Full Throttle Saloon burns to the ground....

[slimcake]

I just drove past this 3 weeks ago. Wonder if they had a bad rally dollar wise??? Pretty sure the place was struggling financially. Just speculation though... Thoughts??

I thought the same thing when I first read about it, but who knows. I enjoyed the tv show when it was on. They will figure out what started it.

Whew!....thought you meant the bar just east a Gwinn in Little Lake....LOL....couple years back they had to change the name from Full Throttle to The Throttle after a threat a lawsuit from this one that burned down....wonder if they will change it back now that the fatheaded one is no more.....LOL.

They will rebuild, bigger and better than ever. Many good times at FTS. Doubt they were hurting for cash. Thank God no one was injured or killed from the fire. FTS is a part of Americana.

that is extremely lame what a bunch of DB . really a bar in a small town 2 states and a great lake away. I would say they deserve the fire but then to most that "insert anti Semitic name " lightning is usually the best thing that can happen

Been there a few times. I would think there will be be an investigation and then we'll know if it will be rebuilt or not.

and it is so original and clever how could u not protect something like full throttle . man u have to be a marketing wizard to have come up with that. then to add the old name saloon to it WOW genius.
I am sure they were the first . cant imagine any other bar sorry saloon in the vicinity of a race track has ever had that name.
total douche move .
