"The venue, owned by Dion Fischer, Aliccia Bollig-Fischer, and Matthew Bihun, has become a bastion for live rock shows, its creative line of Laika Dog hot dogs and tater tots, its pink restrooms, and outdoor patio and rooftop deck. The owners acquired the space, formerly known as Hoot Robinson’s bar, in 2010 and reopened it as UFO Factory in 2014. In 2017, a construction accident led to the bar being declared unsafe and condemned, requiring repairs that took over a year. The venue is closing permanently later this month." - Serena Maria Daniels
