This just in from one of our other favorite online girls about town, Ballard Gossip Girl: a rumor that the Tractor Tavern may be closing. The blog post reads:

So this Gossip Girl is on a conference call for work, and one of my business associates said "I hear the Tractor Tavern is going out of business. Their lease it up" I asked where he got this information, and he mentioned his friend owns one of the nice "tea" houses in Ballard.

Could this be true?

Please pretty please, say it isn't so? Anyone have scoop about this?
