Knew the staff and mgmt at Sassafraz. My condolences and regret goes out to the group. Good to see the conspiracy theorists jumping on the Oliver Stone bandwagon within a matter of minutes. I think it was the guy behind the grassy knoll next to Harry Rosen with the Molotov cocktail started it!

Great group of people. Pretty cool to mock others tragedy. Wonder if was their own home, if we ran some Killer if that would be as equally as entertaining. Not cool jackass, not cool. And for the information, that entire block has some architectural/historical significance to it. Do your homework before the comments. 

Nice work and kudos out to the fire dudes for controlling and saving the structure for the most part. I hope the signed Don Johnson photo is still intact...hehe. ]]>

Travis,

Aside from your annoyance comparing Sassafraz to Maple Leaf Gardens, my point still stands in that I think utilizing Blink 182 as the score for watching someone's livelihood become ruins is a little crass.  Someone owned the place, ran it, and people worked there; I just think it was a bad decision.

On a positive note, watching BlogTO come together as a community to report a breaking story better than any local service was ridiculously impressive.]]>

Paul: Kick ass comparison, buddy.  Let's compare a cheesy Toronto celeb resto to a Canadian national institution.  It's never good news but you're giving a lot of importance to a place lacking any architectural or historical value, that'll probably be back up in months just the same as it was. ]]>

Oh, and my heart goes out to all the staff. Rest assured though, you will find other work in far more profitable places. Merry Christmas to all and to all, peace and prosperity in the years to come.]]>

Well.... I for one HAVE read between the lines. An "oil fire"?? Please... Sure accidents happen, but realistically, all of the people who work the line in the kitchen at Sassafraz (and I've known a lot of them) are the some of the most highly trained cooks in the city. Not to mention that tens of thousands of dollars go into fire suppressants such as sprinkler systems and hazard training. There's slim chance that a grease fire would get that quickly out of hand without being quelled at the source. Also, the dining room?? If you've ever been to or worked at Sassafraz, you know the layout. An oil fire that starts in the kitchen would have one helluva time starting simutaneously in the dining room. It's virtually impossible. Believe me, I know first hand what kind of proceedures are in place at Sassafraz and little is left to "accident". Mark my words people, there is more to this story than initially meets the eye...]]>

The music makes the video 100x better?  Why are we making a 'peppy' music video out of a serious fire?

Like it or not, Sassafraz involved many employees and some owners who are probably a little shocked and distraught to see their livelihood go up in flames.  If this was a video of Maple Leaf Gardens going up in flames (coupled with 'Man Overboard' by Blink 182), I'm sure there would be more people up in arms.

Save the pop punk for your skateboard videos, Maurice.]]>
