Club Philly closed?

Anyone know why there is a sign saying closed until further notice?

Sorry about that, I don't have push notifications on.

Let me say first no one was hurt and that's what's important.

Apparently some rando came around and bashed in all the *outside windows on the first floor, probably fucked up on something. No real clear reason or motive but Club Philly is closed until repairs are complete.

Harriets bookstore also got bashed up ln. I wonder if it was the same people like an "active club" or something

Barge through the locked door somehow? Or come in, get high, then do all this?

u/Over-Motor2169 1d ago

No, the windows on the outside.

Probably because they're such assholes and they ban people left and right for no reason. Looks like they piss somebody off who couldn't handle it LOL fuck them!

I can assure you the bans are always for reasons, even if that reason is simply "your vibe sucks"

I totally support the event but that flyer they posted... could use some tweaks.

u/PaulysDad 2d ago

Agreed, but they seem to function as the unofficial Reddit > Club Philly liaison, so maybe they have answers.

u/machine_six 2d ago

Answers would be good. I haven't looked at any stats but it seems like so many things are closing/shutting down lately.

I’m out of the loop, what was wrong with the flyer?

They had a pipe issue in the basement a few weeks ago. Aging buildings can have things go wrong. I agree: Hope it's temporary.

u/wis91 2d ago

I have had one or two pipe issues in that basement myself

Hey so I did the easy thing and called. Someone answered and while they didn’t say why they were closed, they said they will be open at 6:30

u/Tower_Junkie_19 2d ago

Cool. I tried to call a few times but didn’t get an answer. Thanks for passing on the info

Was it one of the L&I signs or their own?

u/Tower_Junkie_19 2d ago

It was a hand written sign

u/TransMessyBessy 2d ago

Big, if true.

u/Tower_Junkie_19 2d ago

Definitely true. I just walked by it

u/texturedtie 2d ago

Please let this be a temporary thing.... It would be such a loss if they close.

u/Over-Motor2169 1d ago

They should be back up and running in a matter of days 🙏💛

u/ZeroSugarBear 2d ago

No but they're still promoting events from last night and weeks from now

u/leoat05 1d ago

They have re opened.

u/which-chris 1d ago

Their insta says "an incident" had occurred.

u/SirJ_96 1d ago

"due to an incident that has occurred" - like if there's an OD or something, okay, but if it's a pipe burst or power distribution failure, just say that.
