Long Description:This former quonset hut is currently the Rock-It Club. In the past,
it was Duffy's Tavern and possibly the King Tut.
One local story even claims Hank Williams, Sr. died in the
parking lot. Nobody really knows the exact spot of his passing. His
final night's drive was on Route 19, which this quonset hut is
located on. Plus, he (or his driver) did hire a relief driver in
this town. When Hank's death was discovered further up the road in
Oak Hill, he had been dead for some time.
