American Dream Withers, Dies

You may recall posts on this blog from last March about a new 70's dance club called "Flashback" opening in Lincoln's Hay Market. Everyone except the guy sinking his life's savings into the lousy idea knew that it was doomed to fail. The only question was how quickly it would die. We all made our predictions.

About a week ago the place was still open. This morning however, I noticed a for rent sign on the place. So sometime within the last week, it ended. So who prediction was closest?

Here are the predictions:
