Locker Room Tavern

It is time to go. It’s been 11 long months since the first fire and 6 months from the second fire that took us to the ground. Over these past few months we have been faced with uncertainties and after weighing things out, came to the realization that we will NOT be able to rebuild the Locker Room. This process has been almost as traumatic as the fires themselves. This was not our plan but we are tired.

We have been 30 years in a community that has been through so many changes and heartbroken to have to leave behind our family legacy that will be a vacant lot. We are so sad to go. Especially this way. So many amazing businesses have joined and are joining this community and we hope our customers will support them in remembrance of the good times we all shared at the Locker Room.

Though all of “this” has been out of our control we still offer our apologies to our neighbors who have had to look at the rubble everyday. The clean up is finally happening, Monday.

We hope when you remember the Locker Room, you remember that EVERYONE was welcome. We were and will always be a family. We are deeply grateful for all of the love and support from our community.

Please continue to support our White Center businesses. They deserve it after all they have endured through the pandemic and the fires.

We love you all,
Rick & Tami

Our hearts are broken for our fellow business owners in White Center over last nights fire. Reading some of the negative comments, accusations and “opinions” are especially disturbing. People have lost their livelihoods at a crucial time after suffering through the Covid shutdowns. They need your support, not your negativity. We pray that these businesses will be able to reopen and offer our heartfelt sympathies on what they’re going through and will be going through in the coming days and maybe months. We’ve been there…there is light at the end of the tunnel for us and we hope the same for our WC business community.

...When you wake up and all your hard work is literally up in smoke.

That’s how it felt when we arrived on the scene. As these last few days since the fire have passed we have been left stunned and emotionally and physically exhausted BUT not without hope.

Our thanks again to the firefighters, community members, friends, family, customers, employees, and strangers who have offered their love and support during this tragic time. We made it through Covid shutdowns and we will make it through this.

We hope that you all will hang in there as we start the long process of clean up and repair. I’ll try to update as much as possible on the progress. It could be a while.

We’re saving your “seat” and again, thank you to everyone who has reached out. We are deeply touched.

I recently deleted a post that insinuated the person responsible for the recent vandalism in White Center was someone the Locker Room “knew”. We were devastated to see what had happened to our neighbors and actually reached out to Bizzaro the morning after. We’ve been here a long time and we have celebrated the new businesses that have come in and are making White Center a better place. With so many businesses struggling to stay afloat (ours included) it’s very disheartening to have people who know nothing of who we are and what we’ve gone through make such a statement. Our thoughts go out to our fellow businesses who were affected. 😔

Well, it has happened again. We are saddened to announce that the Governor has ordered us to close indoor service as of midnight tonight. This action is set to go through December 14.

We want to take this opportunity to thank you all for doing your part in this fight. Because of your support, we will make it through this but not without some bumps and bruises. Rick said it’s like getting kicked in the balls for a second time and while we are hunched over trying not to throw up, we know we will be back at it as soon as the current restrictions are lifted.

Let’s continue to do our part outside The Locker Room because bars and restaurants depend on what we do going forward in order to open again. Stay safe and healthy and we will keep you updated.

Again, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you for supporting us.
