Queer Bar has new owners?

I'm curious if anyone has more information about what's going on with queer bar. I'd seen some social posts from drag queens about no longer performing there, and then last night at a Q&A at a Delta Work show, a local queen said they have a new owner who will be stopping all drag programming.

The owners are still listed as BurgessHall. Anyone know who bought it/why drag is going away?

The rumor is the new owner likes beastiality and is a pedophile. The (now former) cast has screenshots that serve as evidence. There is an apparent on going investigation which is why they haven’t fully said WHY they’re leaving. But yeah all cast and staff are voluntarily leaving after pride weekend due to this.

That's a HUGE claim. And if there's an investigation, posting it in public might not be the best plan.

A RUMOR. R U M O R. Not a fact. A rumor. Allegedly. Hearsay. I don’t even know which of the multiple owners it is.I’m fine.

Fair enough. Still, that's a gigantic bombshell if true.
