Description:

KAPPA KABANNA matchbook


You are bidding on a rare book of matches from the infamous Kappa Kabanna strip club owned by Elias Camille Ghantous (alias 'Leo Ghantous').  In addition to being owner of the Kappa 'gentlemen's club,' 'Leo' is also a regional minor celebrity:  a 'slip and fall lawyer' from cheesy local commercials. 


- Area law enforcement made a bust [pun intended] at the 'Leo Ghantous' Kappa Kabanna Klub during the 2008 Memorial weekend as part of an undercover prostitution sting.

- An area man was charged with the murder of his friend when they fought after celebrating the friend's 21st birthday at the Kappa Kabanna
on December 31, 2002.

- In February 1999 a man filed assault charges against the Kappa Kabana, after an exotic dancer tried to wrap her legs around his neck while holding onto the stripper pole onstage, causing the man to fall off a barstool and hit his head.

- A local newspaper awarded the club with the 'Best Laugh' for a message on the outdoor marquee at Kappa Kabanna that read: Now Hiring All Positions

- 'Leo The Lawyer' was the defendant in five lawsuits against his family...including charges filed by his own mother!

-
On December 31, 2016 an unidentified dead body was found inside of a burned down house at the Kappa Kabanna address.  For years, the house had been used exclusively for storage by the strip bar, according to the County Coroner.

...The 'Leo Ghantous' Kappa Kabanna Klub is still around and its notorious legend is still growing beyond the town's population of 200 people.  However, they stopped making these matches when the statewide smoking ban went into effect, making this
collectable souvenir a hot vintage rarity.
