re: Big Mike's in Denham Springs got help from 'Bar Rescue's' Jon Taffer

I always wondered the same. My guess was the owner of cactus cafe owns the whole strip of buildings (Lebanese place and crossfit place and big mikes), and leased them out and so he didn't really have to make money on cactus cafe anymore to keep it open. Then after the flood it was pointless to open it back up so he rented it to big mike? Just a theory but I've always wondered how and why they stayed open as long as they did.
