So, I know that Emmanuel Steward passed away back in October and shortly after, his sister cleared the entire place out to avoid vandals from coming in and grabbing things to take or damaging the place, and she had the signage removed from the front of the gym, and had "closed" it, but that's the last that I had heard of the gym's fate. Has it been reopened since then or is it officially/unofficially closed permanently now? I know that the website for the Kronk Gym store is still up and running and I would love to order a T-Shirt from the website, but assuming the gym is closed, even if just temporarily, would I ever even receive the T-Shirt if I ordered it?

Since the original physical location is gone and Emanuel is gone, not sure there is anything left to call "Kronk." His nephew has become a very esteemed trainer in his own right... not sure if Andy, Jonathan, those guys, are still going to train in Michigan.

I would email someone at the site and ask.
