Hilarities condo destroyed by fire, club gone, too!

According to articles in the Cleveland Plain Dealer and the Akron Beacon-Journal, Hilarities in Cuyahoga Falls has been nearly destroyed by fire.

“The place is almost destroyed,” said Pete Barakat, whose brother, Tannous, owns the club.

The Cuyahoga Falls police and fire departments and representatives of the Ohio Fire Marshal investigated the damage Thursday.

The fire started shortly after the club was closed. No one was hurt.

Lucy Bibbee, the club’s marketing and sales director and booking agent, said management hopes to reopen as soon as possible and is considering other locations, preferably in Cuyahoga Falls.

And, it is hoped, near a hotel.
