Nightclubs in Wichita Falls are typically short-lived. So we asked our Facebook friends which former nightclubs they miss the most, and these were the top responses.
I’m not sure what it is about nightclubs, but they appear to open and close faster than any other business. It’s not limited to Wichita Falls, either. The same could be said for all clubs.
Ray Ford, co-owner of a management services company, tells OK College Start that the average lifespan of a nightclub or bar is two years. In fact, staying in business for one year is considered successful. It’s a fiercely competitive business.
I will say that bars in Wichita Falls appear to have much more staying power. The same can be said for pool halls, but not for nightclubs. Some have lasted longer than a few years, but they are the exception.
When I was in high school in the late 1980s and early 1990s, everyone seemed to go to the same hot club. However, as soon as a cool new club opened, everyone started going there, resulting in the closure of the other club.
