The 1st-Ever “06880” Story Involving A Tanning Salon, The Super Bowl And Public Toilets

Spotted on the front door of Palm Beach Tan, on Post Road East:

Okay. I kind of get why — a month ahead of time — they let their customers know they’ll be closing early for the Super Bowl.

They don’t want to disappoint all those pale folks racing in every Sunday evening, for those 7 p.m. appointments.

But “No Public Restrooms”?

Did I miss that epidemic of folks driving off I-95 — or those living nearby without indoor plumbing — who keep bugging Palm Beach Tan, screaming, “We gotta go!”?

The least they can do is direct them to Layla’s Falafel next door — a very welcoming spot. Maybe the 2 gas stations across the street.

Or just about any other place in town.

    could the tanning booth double???

    Is there a practical reason behind the sign? I know there is an age restriction in CT (no one under 16 can utilize without written consent of adult parent or guardian), but not certain if tanning salons are subject to health department inspections. Perhaps allowing public use of their restroom(s) makes it harder for them to comply with regulations and/or pass inspections?

    It’s a good thing. There are far too many people confused as to which bathroom they should be using. This eliminates the problem.
