A felon in possession of an illegal gun murdering someone - what's new in today's America
I only continue to stop in because I've been going there for decades, have a VIP card (free entry), and have to see how the story (and possibly me) ends.
Hopefully, this is the last straw.
But there's been alot of last straws in the two years since Deja Vu took over.
The 2 shootings/killings in 6 months article leaves out that every weekend there are less serious gun, drug, prostitution, and fight incidents.

No details yet, but the manager's text said closed for good.
Actually, I can't believe it stayed open this long.
Very sad though. Before Vu took over, Tuxedos was an amazing club.
SoCo (Southern Comfort) and Daisy Dooks are now the only two clubs left in the Quad Cities/Davenport area.
