Rays was one of those operations that opened as an independent operation here in Arlington, back in the summer of 2008, without much advertising. It was out on Wilson Blvd and was supposed to attract the young yuppie spenders that live along the street there.

If you’ve watched the trend since 2010...various independent operations have opened on Wilson Blvd, and probably a quarter of them shut down within four years.

The locals would mostly say that the place peaked on enthusiasm back in 2011, and has had trouble making the rent payments over the past year. I’d be the first to agree that rent along Wilson Blvd is pretty hefty, and this was the wrong place for a start-up....but if you want business of the yuppies....this is the only way to get it.

Note, a regular burger was $7 at Rays....but everything beyond the regular stuff you put on it....added up. So when you added any fancy cheese, figure another $2. So with a beer and fries...you were paying close to $14 (remember VA has a great sales tax).

Going back to Breitbart and the HuffPo stories, it seems they decided to close and go out of business over a lease dispute? Seems strange. So move.

(tho, granted, Arlington and DC Metro area real estate seems to have picked up the slack suffered throughout the rest of the country. I think it’s also pricing itself out of the market altogether. Time will tell.)

He learned from Obummer that you could be a FREELOADER... He didn’t pay his rent. I guess he thought the Landlord was giving him free rent for being a DemoRat......

Flies follow him around. Maybe it is the stench of death.

He is not just the Kiss of Death for businesses, but also for our country.
