UPDATE @ 2:11pm
Mike Hughes, the Area Director for the Bennigan's operating in Point Pleasant and Athens, says the two locations that he represents will not be closed due to the fact that those are franchise operations.
Hughes says the chapter 7 bankruptcy that Bennigan's corporate filed does not affect either location and both will continue to be open for business.

People are idiots. Not all kids are "sqaulling children." If you don't like kids, don't go to family resturants.
Metromedia Restaurant Group (owns S&A Restaurant Corp. and is a part of billionaire John Kluge's empire.)and it's sister companies S&A Restaurant Corp.(Steak & Ale)(Parent Company to Bennigan's and Steak & Ale) and Metromedia Steakhouses Company LP ( Bennigan's) has up to 49 creditors and owes less the $50,000. Metromedia Restaurant Group claims it will have no funds left after administrative expenses are paid to repay its creditors. This statement does not include any of the former employees from more than 300 outlets of Bennigan's and Steak & Ale. It is unknown if and when any of the restaurant employees will receive their pay checks.
Hopefully Chili's will be next. They have been going downhill for a long time.
