One-Day Catering Permits
Since it was so hard to obtain a license, Steve Rubell and Ian Schrager opted to get catering permits instead. The club needed some booze and this was one way to get around the license laws. They launched the company under the name “Broadway Catering Corp”, which was how they got the crates of alcohol to serve their guests. The Liquor State Authorities eventually got suspicious of their behavior and asked them why a disco club needed all those catering permits. That was when the music stopped, and the police raided the night club. It was at that moment when everything started to fall apart for Studio 54.
