Bar Rescue - Second Base Bar and Grill Update

On tonight's episode of Bar Rescue, Jon Taffer and crew are in Orange, California to re-rescue Second Base Bar and Grill.  The bar was on the second season of Bar Rescue and was transformed from Extremes into Second Base Bar and Grill.  The bar was has gone back downhill with the owner not putting any money back into the bar and they have stopped serving their Bar Rescue food and drinks.

During the Second Base Bar and Grill re-rescue, Jon Taffer said he would put about $100,000 into the Second Base re-rescue, but only if the owner Terry was willing to put up some money of his own.  Terry needed to put up about $30,000 of his own money for Jon to start the makeover, which he refused and said he could not come up with the money.  So Jon walked out without making any changes.  Here are some updates for Second Base Bar and Grill since Bar Rescue visited the first time.




Reviews:

There are a lot of bad reviews for Second Base on Yelp, which complain about fights, rude bartenders, and filth.

Conclusion:

Second Base Bar and Grill continues to get a lot of bad reviews and the shooting that happened outside the bar probably didn't help business either.  It seems that Gary and the bartenders from the show all still work at the bar despite Jon suggesting they find somewhere else to work.

Whether Jon was actually going to re-rescue the bar or if they did all of this for TV is probably up for debate.
