my friend that works there says they are closing but thinking about coming back with a new name/ownership. It really surprised me. I thought they did pretty good business.

Its a very good thing. They dont taste like hamburgers. They taste like sweet candy. I guess the reason why I like them so much is because the type of gummi used to make the bread is so spongy feeling. They taste great. You can buy the krabby patti (spongebob squarepants) ones at walmart. Those are almost as good as the original brand which they sell at the mall in a store called The Candy Wrapper. I think the brand name is e-fruiti or some shit. They have pizzas and hotdogs in that same brand too. Ugh...my mouth waters.
I went to Hub City once. They carded me, put X's on my hand, but then they still put a wrist band on me  . I had perfume (has rubbing alcohol in it) in my purse so I washed off the X's. haha those dumb fucks.

How sad. Hub City was one of my required visits when I'd come back to town. I guess it's down to Rosa's and Bonus Burger now.

Sorry guys, I was back in dallas buying a car.
This is the deal. It closed on Valentine's day. I thought someone would have posted it sooner, but maybe I didn't notice. Apparently a large amount of taxes was owed to the TABC because they hadn't paid. So they shut us down until the taxes were paid. New investors are looking into it, and I'll have more details on Tuesday. As far as when it will open, no idea. I don't want to be quoted, but probably 1-2 months. -------------------- Beers that I have had, updated July 5th, 2009: 1,548

I thought it was because they didn't feel like paying the food distributor.

well the general manager and the co-owner both blamed each other for not paying. That is just bad business practices.

Its JJJ's Chophouse and Brewery. The old head brewer is still there brewing, but the new owners are being dicks. He's making him pay for his beer. The new owners are the same guys that own Bigham's Smokehouse.
