One of Megan Lynn Cordrey’s Facebook friends responded with the following Facebook post:

I can only imagine that you feel as if the rug was pulled out from under you… Keep your head up Doodles… Bigger and better things await you… Hold onto the memories and make the best with what you have… Stay positive even when negativity surrounds you… After all, you could be in my situation… 4 1/2 months and guess where I’m at rn… You’re doing great!! Love you!!

How We Got Here

In 2015 Brad Stegman left his corporate management position at a casino and bought the City Bar. When Brad first opened the bar he envisioned a traditional neighborhood tavern where locals could stop by for a drink and enjoy live entertainment. But with gaming revenue not living up to expectations, Brad was forced to cut costs.

Desperate to improve business, Brad allowed his bartenders to promote their own events, some of which were better suited for strip clubs. Overwhelmed by bossy bartenders, Brad quickly lost control of his bar.

In debt to the tune of $140,000 and losing $6,000 a month, Brad put in a call for help. Taffer and the Bar Rescue team answered that call, and a couple of months later, Brad sold the bar to the Sahara Lounge.

The rest as they say, is Bar Rescue history.
