Funny true: Growing up, there was a bar a town away from me. I think it was called Casablanca at the time – I was just a kid, what did I care?
One day, it shuts down.
A few years later, it reopens with the name Woody’s.
It was the name of the owner. Just a regular bar.
After a couple of years with that name, it shut down again.
Stayed shut down for a year.
Then it got new ownership.
The name “Woody’s”.
This time, the owner’s name wasn’t Woody.
It became a gay bar and was hugely successful.
True story from NJ.
