The Copacabana

The Copacabana is a popular nightclub in New York City.
It was founded in 1940, and was well known for its floor shows and playing host to various celebrities. It was featured in several TV shows and movies, and was also the subject of Barry Manilow's 1978 hit "Copacabana (At the Copa)". The latter told the tragic tale of the star-crossed lovers Lola the showgirl and Tony the bartender who both worked there.
In the late 1970s, the club became a disco. Later, in 2020, it closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It reopened two years later in a new location.
The club got the prehistoric treatment in two episodes of The Flintstones:
* In "The Entertainer", Fred Flintstone takes Wilma's old schoolmate Greta Gravel to the Copacave to secure a business deal with Mr. Slate's company. But Wilma and the Rubbles are also there.
* In "Peek-A-Boo Camera," the club is called The Copacaboulder.
