Wow - I hit this club on 2 occasions pre-Covid in some of my ATL trips - once on a weeknight and once on a Friday afternoon - seemed like a fairly-chill environment but if memory serves me correctly the parking lot was kinda dark at night and AFAIK ATL crime seems to be surging in the last few years.

Isn't there a small grocery store in that same strip mall? Maybe it was a gunfight over the last box of double fudge pop tarts.

This place is considered to be one of the only "night clubs" in the area so there's a lot of people who show up not even for the strippers but just to hang out at night. They have pool tables that are usually full as well.

I've seen a couple fights break out and people get arrested in the parking lot for small shit because there's usually cops there. Maybe that night the cops weren't paying attention.

If you're in the back of the parking lot near the liquor store you can't really see what's going on from the front entrance.
