YANKEES 13, BOSOX 6. OUCH.

Last night was dominated by a capacity crowd there to watch the "Big Series" between the Boston Red Sox and the NY Yankees. Whenever these two teams play there's always electricity in the air and last night was no exception.

The Red Sox dominated the season series up to this point, winning every game they played so far. However, coming into last night's game, the Yankees had been playing great baseball while the BoSox were struggling a bit. Last night's game was a total slugfest and a joy to watch... if you were a fan of the Bronx Bombers. They hammered starter John Smoltz (why is he still pitching?) and the arch-rivals 13-6 to win for the first time this season, much to the delight of the Yankee fans at the bar. It was a long game (as Yankee/Red Sox games tend to be) but it was good for us as it kept folks at the bar. And it always intrigues me how many "fair weather" fans come out when this series takes place.

A quick note on Wednesday's KOPPARBERG promo. I was disappointed with the model that they sent us; she clearly didn't meet the standards of the models KOPPARBERG sent the first time around. I think I said to someone that it was the equivalent of expecting Giselle Bundchen and getting Julia Childs instead.

JOHN CUSACK made an appearance at the bar and yes, he's officially back in the neighborhood. He's currently taking applications for a new wing man....

UFC 101 takes place this Saturday night and of course, we'll host the event, LIVE! The matches take place at 10 pm so make sure to get there early because we fill up quickly and you might get shut out. Don't say I didn't warn you!

The weekend should be a good one around here, so make sure to refer to our website for the current specials of the day. It's beautiful outside now so I'm am out to take advantage of it before work starts! Enjoy the weekend!
