What!? Sam's in New Albany burns.

Horrible horrible. Sam's suffers a debilitating fire last night. News said they will rebuild but what a shame to miss out on the holiday business. Do any of our followers work there?

Our hearts go out to our friends that are part of this group. There are going to be quite a few people out of work until they get rebuilt.

I've suggested that people help them out by patronizing their location in Highlander Point. Hopefully an uptick in business there will allow them to transfer some of their employees to that location as a short term fix until they are able to rebuild.

Very good advice. Thanks for it, Todd.

My buddy Kevin Gibson just wrote a piece on the Insider Louisville website about the fire. It looks like a fund has been set up to help the employees:
