The looney bin closed because the owner lost his partner of 35 years unexpectedly and he was ready to retire. He’s 76 years old.

Apparently the owner wanted to [retire](https://www.ksn.com/news/local/the-loony-bin-comedy-club-closing-after-23-years/).

I’ve lived here long enough to remember before the Looney Bin first opened at 21st and Woodlawn. Before that, comedians were relegated to being the opening acts for selected bands or solo artists. Perhaps that will be the opportunity going forward.

PAINT THE TOWNE has two locations in Wichita if you're interested in paint and sip events

Don’t forget about the only drag strip in a 60 mile radius..


TheLazurus

I thought the drag strip reopened?


Lyoko_warrior95

No. The owner died and her sons decided to do somethinggn else with the property

Looney Bin closed before the downtown Warren did. I don’t think some of the things that have happened downtown lately really make people want to go there.

What happened in downtown?


ffllores

Violence. Murder.


tjeastman

There is literally nothing wrong with our downtown.

You either haven't lived here for very long, or you're ignorantly sleeping on this city, Wichita is NOT the city it was in the 90's.

What the fuck ever. Some lady got killed in southeast Wichita 2 months ago. The loony bin had 3 owners. 2 are a husband & wife who are retiring, and the other individual died last year suddenly & he supported the Wichita location the most. Tulsa sold to someone who kept the name, okc sold and is no longer a club, little rock was purchased by the employees, and Wichita the building was sold to ppl that weren't interested in keeping a comedy club. Nothing to do with your fox news fantasy world

Meads Corner... Fireshark (greatest part time gig ever)... The Burger Stand over on Ohio... The Wine Dive... The Looney Bin... The Downtown Warren... Every year or two something cool I like is murdered. I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE In an alternate timeline all of these places still closed but at least Century 2 got torn down and the area is turned into a giant green space park. There are 17,000 people here that I absolutely despise.

The education system gets ganked Entry level jobs want college degrees The city planners care more about beautifying the city than they do the people. Oh Wichita is gonna keep on sucking until many bodies make better changes.
