Newly opened gay bar and cafe in Asheville destroyed in Hurricane Helene

Was open for a month and the hurricane put the entire building under water. They lost everything.

I know we are always suspicious of the grift here, but I feel these guys are decent gays and not on the grift, so I donated to the GFM. Hard enough to open a gay bar or keep one open these days......

Also Ashville is a known flood zone with at least 5000 properties at HIGH RISK of major flooding. Maybe open your new business above a flood zone.

Did they not have flood insurance? I know it's difficult to get in Florida but I've not heard it was a problem in NC. There's no reason they shouldn't be able to build back once their claim is approved.

I'm sure they did, but this flood was well beyond what was expected in the area.

We can rebuild! āœŠ

So their insurance company will say the flood was "unexpected" therefore they don't have to pay out? šŸ¤”
