Billy Bob’s and Purgatory Make Top 100 Clubs In US

A couple of surprising things: One, that there’s a publication called Nightclub & Bar Magazine. Two, that it has yet to reproduce its Top 100 Nightclubs in the U.S. issue online. (Thankfully, someone did.) Three, that Dallas’ Purgatory made it in the top 25 (it’s no. 23). Four, that Billy Bob’s didn’t crack the top 10 (it’s no. 14). (h/t Preston Jones)

  3. jrp, I agree w/you…#9 a biker bar in Sturgis (pop 6k), open 10 days a year? Been there, it ain’t that happening.

  4. i’m just saying that at the low end of the stated range of annual rev for Billy Bob’s, which is listed as $10M-$20M, they’ve have to be pulling in about $27,500 a night each and every night

    more power to them if they are, but i dunno

  5. Billy Bob’s isn’t a night club. It’s a concert hall.
