  Anyone else from this era remember going here ? Good times! 07-08 Had a great time going here. Got a tattoo and bought a case of beer that I carried down the road to hour hotel at 16. Police just drove on by not giving two Fs as long as you were being cool. Hotel across from taco bell with a cool pool

  Went there during spring break back in 2011, good times.  Place was a friggin zoo. Sad to see it abandoned, kids who go to pcb these days don't get to have the kind of fun we did. Too many rules

  Hey Zack. Thanks for posting this video about Club La Vela. It is good seeing the inside of that place again. I like so many others have so many amazing memories of that place from college spring breaks there years ago. I have not been to panama city in 15 years now. It is sad to see that place closed down. I remember the glory days of that place and in my minds eye I can see the pool and area packed out with thousands of college kids. Panama city is not the same as it was years ago. Some of the best times of my life were had there.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JADVZcebWAM&amp;t=1329">22:09</a> looks like they were going to eventually replace the roof at some point. Those are coils of sheet metal and roofing panels.

  Not sure how many wrestling fans watched this but on behalf of us all thank you for this video! I looked for a video like this in the past so i am very surprised and happy that it was done by another wrestling fan. It looks so much smaller in your video than it did watching Nitro for whatever reason. Again thanks for this!

  Zachary thanks so much for doing this. It needed to be done. I love it. I wish you could have gone into the dance floor area and other areas as well.But I can understand why you didn&apos;t. I was there two weeks ago in august and they had demolished about 90% of Spinaker, the other super club next door, and was able to get some pics of what was left of it. The owner of La Vela is Patrick &nbsp;Pfeffer,he is &nbsp;Ukrainian and he had to escape ukraine a few months go because of the war there.I know La Vela is not in great condition, but I can tell a lot of the structure is still very solid. I wish someone with money would buy the property and bring it back up to code. I know it won&apos;t happen because the city has put a &nbsp;squash on spring break there. Thanks again for this video. I know I will watch it many times
