After years & years and thousands-upon-thousands of happy customers, Tripper's in Frandor has shut it's doors.

Closed.

For good.

Steve Tripp closed down his establishment permanently Wednesday (May 25) evening after 27 years of entertaining the Lansing/East Lansing (and surrounding) communities.

I, for one, will miss it...I had some fun times there and memories that will last, as I'm sure a lot of other people will feel as well.

The reason?
The usual.
Money...financing...budgets... whatever you wanna call it, it centers around dollars.

According to a quote Steve made in the City Pulse:  “We’ve celebrated together, with family and friends.....we’ve laughed together, played games and drank martinis.”

Yup. Me too.

Pay a visit and read the sign/note Steve has left to his former customers and Tripper's fans...and somehow let him - or any former staff member - know how much you enjoyed Tripper's over the years.
