The Pokemon Gym has left Tacoma, WA just as mysteriously as it appeared. Rumor has it that the Gym was an all-ages music venue created by some local college students for a senior project. Just who were these students and what grade did they get? No one knows for sure. What we DO know is that the Gym was ALSO an illegal squat, one that the local authorities shut down tout de suite. Still, that lovely blue and yellow paint-job remained for a few years after, providing smiles galore across the internet. Until now. Yes, the Pokemon Gym is gone, its exterior repainted a drab, muddy brown. Who painted it and for what reason? It doesn’t f*cking matter. It’s like Robert Frost used to say, “Nothing gold and blue can stay.” (Info, pics)
