FORT WORTH, Texas — Chris Polone has a stack of blue citations from Fort Worth code enforcement officials for opening his bar Rail Club Live.
“We’re selling toilet paper out of the Rail Club now,” Polone joked, holding the citations.
No Fort Worth business has more COVID-related citations than Rail Club Live. Polone has gotten 14, according to city records.
“I’m not going to pay a dollar for these fines,” Polone said. “In fact, I’m sure there’s failure to appear charges on my name right now.”
