Atlanta is a pretty wild place. It’s big on cars, so much so that city officials have considered some pretty harsh penalties if you’re caught doing something dumb like speeding or street racing. But the city is so car centered that a rapper opened a club and sports bar at a local gas station.
Owned by Migos rapper Quavo and local Atlanta restaurateurs Kelan and Vinny Watson, the club is appropriately called V12 Restaurant And Sports Bar and it’s built inside of a BP gas station across from Georgia Tech University. The 7,500 square foot club and sports bar has two VIP rooms called ‘The Kelan” and ‘The Vinny.” The interior of the club looks like like a pretty high-end place, with shiny metal accents and European furniture from the Netherlands, Spain and Italy.
The main features are a retractable roof and a faux Lamborghini made out of neon tubes that Quavo used during a performance on the Tonight Show.
Vinny Watson says that he hopes “guests will create unforgettable memories at V12.” From the looks of things that won’t be a problem. A video circulating on social media shows the club looking absolutely packed. It even looks like people were using gas pumps as parking spaces; there’s almost no room for vehicles to move in the parking lot.
Doesn’t seem like the club will be able to function as a gas station much. It’ll be interesting to see just how long something like this lasts. Hopefully it lasts long enough for me to be able to check it out. It’s one of those random things you just have to experience before it’s randomly gone and no one ever remembers it exists. So if you catch me down in Atlanta at this place, bottle service is on me.
