A death has occurred at Club Philadelphia<\/a><\/b><\/u> a week ago Friday. According to G Philly<\/a><\/b><\/u>, police arrived on the scene at 1:59 A.M on March 15. The 60-year-old man was later pronounced dead at Jefferson hospital.<\/p>\n

This bathhouse was once known as a drug infested establishment where overdoses happened on a fairly regular basis. Two years ago a Canadian, Chris Srnicek<\/a><\/b><\/u>, bought the business. Since then he has worked hard on renovating the club and riding it of its bad reputation. Complete with the name change to Club Philadelphia.<\/p>\n

Srnicek told G Philly that the man died in all likelihood of natural causes. “We don’t think it’s drugs. There were no needles in the room. … Plus, as far as I know the gentleman was older, well put together, and was courteous and polite to the staff \u2014 not the stereotypical drug profile.”<\/p>\n

Police are still investigating, but Srnicek feels confident they will find nothing “because as far as we know there was nothing strange or exceptional about his passing.”<\/p>\n

UPDATE<\/b> Some push back has arisen about Chris Srnicek<\/a><\/b><\/u> comments on what a drug user looks like. He has responded that he was baited by the reporter and his words were taken out of context. <\/p>\n

“My comments were taken COMPLETELY out of context…sorry Gents…!!! We got baited into this article and it has been spun to our detriment.” <\/p>\n

He added later “It was spun negatively for us. Of course I don’t think 60 is old; I’m not a young twink myself. Anyway; we got baited into this article; my bad…I now know better when contacted by the media. Cheers, Chris”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
