Pigeon Poop Blamed for Safari Sam's Sign Spontaneous Combustion

Categories: Uncategorized

 

 The Safari Sam's sign that once lit up the sky over Sunset Blvd. is nothing but a charred sorry mess after bursting into flames at around 7PM last Saturday night, much to the amazement of staff and club-goers standing outside. Sam told me about the incident last night - apparently a lethal combination of pigeon poop and rain drops caused the sign's electronics to shortcircuit, leading to a spark, and then a flame...the resultant pyrotechnic display was pretty for a minute, apparently - not unlike the last day of Burning Man.

Sam said the club will be holding a benefit on February 16 to raise money for a new sign - details to come!
