Widow's Watch was a great dance place to go on Friday and Saturday night during the Disco years. Thanks for the picture Mack.

I have a band called Wildflower and we used to play at the Widow's Watch. Does anyone have recollection of that?

Didn't Widow' Watch get that name because Husband would go there to meet girl's? So the wives would go there to catch if they were cheating?

I use to go to the Widows Watch every week to listen to the music and dance. I was very good friends with the Owner Richie Maserri. It was a great place and it was good times.

The late, great manager disco dance champion John Jacobs was manager of the Widow's Watch.
Jacobs unsuccessfully sued Emilio Estefan and successfully had to place papers on March Anthony and JLO in 2012.
I think they threw him a few "crum$"
