Lake Stevens bar vandalized as rumors of a hate group swirl
LAKE STEVENS — Rumors claiming that a Lake Stevens bar has been hosting a far-right group called the Proud Boys has apparently led to vandalism, as well as the owners temporarily closing shop.
In a Facebook post, the owners of Razzals Bar & Grill, located on 4th Street NE off Highway 9, said they would be closed Friday and Saturday “in consideration of the safety of our community and employees.”
“Razzals Ownership does not condone or side with any groups or organizations that promote violence, racial or sexual bias of any kind,” the post said. “Razzals is currently and has been a ‘Family Friendly’ Sports Bar that serves the Lake Stevens Community.”
Prior to the posting, sometime Thursday night or Friday morning, the bar had been tagged with at least three messages. Photos show graffiti saying “NO NAZIS IN OUR TOWN” and “(Expletive) NAZI PROUDBOYS!”

That's too bad. I was at this bar for a co-worker's retirement party a few years ago. Seems like a nice place.
