In case there is any doubt, this is in Kentucky.
Given that the club has really not been that good for several years and it is virtually empty most nights and how quickly it went up in flames this just screams "attempted insurance fraud" to me. However, someone over did the flammable substances and made it too obvious of an arson case so the insurance probably won't pay a dime.
