A fire apparently sparked by the spontaneous combustion of hot rags that had just come out of the dryer caused extensive damage to a Niagara Falls Boulevard restaurant in the Town of Tonawanda early today

I’d like to point out that I reported this in the isomniacs roll call thread last night.
Dibs!
But really, I live right by there and we had firetrucks flying down Harrison like crazy, I woke up cuz my car alarm went off and decided to drive by.
They had the whole blvd blocked off and it was smoking like crazy
All around 1:45am
Really shitty though, never ate there but I know some members owned it, I’m sorry for any losses from last night

OMG!! Tom and Pat I hope everything is okay and no one was hurt.
The owner had a sick salt water tank in the back, prob worth more than some of the cars on the board. I hope it wasn’t damaged as well.

Never been there, but have met Phat a few times, good guy…sucks to hear. Hopefully insurance is cool and everything gets taken care of quickly, and you’re up and running again soon!
edit:
is this like a chain place, or did Phat privately start/own/operate both local locations?

I use to work there in college and it’s not a chain. Family owned and operated, not sure about the new location though.
