    That will be kind of a bummer - I really liked the old Sam's Quik Stop more than the location out on 54.

    There are different things I like about each one. Wonder if the owner will reopen somewhere else.

    Possibly in the retail space in the apartments?

    Just saw that. Seems like he is disputing the article but it also seems a bit vague. Either way, business is business.

    I saw the response on FB yesterday and had no idea what it was related to. My coworker just told me about the article in the N&O. What a bummer if it does close. I work at Duke and I frequently pop into Sams after work for releases.

    I guess I'll be going to Beer Study Durham more often in the near future. It's a hassle getting over there at 5pm though.

    I get the feeling they were not expecting this information to come out base on their responses or lack of on Twitter. However that doesn’t make it fake news, the article clearly states that plans are submitted and the deal isn’t final. I suspect they will strike a different tone in the upcoming months.

    Very vague response. Sounds like he has a plan to sell, but can't probably can't comment legally yet. To @dbrauneis point, he might have a space in the new complex.

    They deleted the tweet I posted earlier, sounds like some folks got upset about the “fake news” comment or something or other.
