NYC bar won't serve Boston beer

Found January 27, 2012 on Larry Brown Sports: Yardbarker Blogger Network

From Larry Brown Sports:

If you only plan on drinking Sam Adams during the Super Bowl, your list of potential spots to enjoy the game was just cut down by one.  As most of you know, Sam Adams is a company that is based out of Boston, Mass.  You may have seen their catchy commercials with the bald-headed, bearded guys talking about how many awards their main brew — Boston Lager — has taken home over the past year. Well Foley’s Pub in Manhattan will not be offering Sam Adams next Sunday.

“Foley’s NY Pub in NYC says it will not sell Sam Adams during Super Bowl game so as not to support a Boston-based brand,” Darren Rovell wrote on Twitter Friday.

But that’s not all.  The owner of Foley’s in New York, Shaun Clancy, has made a wager with Ken Casey, the lead vocalist for the Boston-based band the Dropkick Murphys and owner of McGreevy’s bar in Boston. According to the Boston Herald, the loser must donate the earnings from sales of shepherd’s pie from Super Bowl Sunday until MLB Opening Day to the charity of their choice.  In addition, the loser will have to bartend at the winner’s bar wearing the opposing teams jersey.

With two weeks between the conference championship games and Super Bowl Sunday, we all have to find ways to keep ourselves occupied.  Kudos to both bar owners for finding a way to do so in a productive manner.

  • Someone probably drank too much of that New York swill. ;) You remember that Title Town has had more success than you in spots in general for awhile now. Honestly though, why does beer have anything to do with it? Some people are so silly.

  • That's because these morons actually think that the players know who they are. Idiots, morons. To beat up someone for this shows that these dimwits have nothing else in life that matters, pretty freakin scary.

  • What is truly amazing is the mentality of these NY & NE sport fans. After the Superbowl the winning team will go home with a ton of cash and so will the losing team (not as muc but WTF its not chicken feed) The moron fans will go home with no money from this game and the losing fans will be very upset. Over what? A freakin game? The Pats and The Giants don't pay my rent, I have to pay to see these rich idiots bang each others brains in. To get so upset that your team is being slighted, or mocked, come on! PLEASE give me a break morons, look at the big picture, IT JUST DOESN'T MATTER.

  • The New York Giants are not shy about expressing their hatred of the Dallas Cowboys, and Thursday running back Brandon Jacobs said it was because of their "loud and obnoxious" fans.

    OK MR BIG MOUTH Jacobs, we'll see how you do with New England and how you handle the NE Fans after you walk through that tunnel defeated from an A## Kicking Toughguy, This Dallas fan wants to see you eat some CROW Come Monday....prediction...NE-28, NY-17. Stay tunned...I called it last year, I'll call this too.

  • Btw, the food in Boston is actually quite good. And it certainly costs way less. Guess you might be too drunk of crappy beers to notice, though.

  • Way to represent your "greatest" city by being racist, a douche bag, out of touch with reality, and in general uninformed and incorrect. They call it Titletown for a reason. We've been winning it all since the turn of the Century.For the most part, we've own you here in Boston. Too bad the New Yorkers can't admit to being inferior to anything.

  • What another non-story. It's simple, beer has nothing to do with anything. It just some douche bag New Yorker trying to get more sales. Why should anyone care? Sad that it would matter to some people. I still don't see what alcohol has to do with sports.
