Here is an interesting news clip I came across ......

"Flames destroy historic local Mai-Kai night club located on the old Diboll highway. Originally named Walters Supper Club and later named The Rendvous, it was built in the 1940s and withstood many a Texas two-step across its solid wood floor."

This fire happened in January, 1989, in the town of Diboll, Texas, which is a small town of 5500 people, located halfway between Houston and Dallas.

So, anyone here ever hear of this place? Was it tiki? Can one two-step with a mai-tai in hand? The fire happened the same day that the local Bass Club elected new officials. You think they had anything to do with the fire?
