I haven't been there since the late 90s when cheap wings/trivia was a thing amongst my friends, so I have no idea what it's been like inside, but driving by I always got the impression that it turned into a hang out for people who really wanted to be seen, and for dudes (middle-aged or otherwise) to show off their exotics/hogs.

Not really my scene, but what a fantastic location...hopefully it's something interesting and not a chain.
