Yeah, another quarters thread, but I searched and couldn't find much other than people predicting its failure/ethnic takeover. Anyone been yet?

Unfortunately, I am a wee bit worried about this myself...

Sherwood at Coursey. The way people are talking about it, I'm wondering if I should even go during the day.

Is there any factual reason why people say this in every thread about this place? Is it just because the owners are black?

Let me put it this way, there's a reason that the Varsity hasn't had any sort of "hip hop" night in a VERY long time!

Didn't realize it opened. Will eventually check this out unless it's turned into a war zone.

Gotcha. I wasn't 100% sure what it was. Only way they make it any amout of time is by charging high cover charges and having security out the ass.

I don't understand why people say it will turn into a warzone. It's not in a bad part of town. Yes, lots of blacks will go. But Why will it be a warzone? Am I missing something? Celebration station isn't far from there, and it was never a warzone when I went.

If you don't think celebration station is a ghetto trash site, you must not be going to the same I've been to

There are countless other businesses in that area that don't get the "war zone" designation. I'm guessing its because of the black ownership and the type of place. I could see loitering being a problem if a cover charge isn't taken and the parking lot has no security. I wish them well. I don't see why people want to see this place fail. Local investors putting money back in to the economy.

Didn't really insinuate it was. But if it becomes overtaken and just a generally crappy place I won't visit. Otherwise I think it's a cool concept. `
