amNY Watch: Out of My Jurisdiction
February 19, 2008 – 9:46 amOn their amInsider page today, amNewYork had a guide to happy hours in the East Village.
If this place is in the East Village, I must live in the Financial District. amNewYork, how dare you suggest that this bar is in my neighborhood! It gives the East Village a bad name!
Coincidentally, in classic half-assed amNewYork fashion, the first featured bar on their list is the Village Pourhouse, a fratty neon eyesore down 3rd Avenue that’s owned by the same people who own Proof. Why search for an actual happy hour deal in the East Village when you can have some douchebag promoter tell you what bars to list in your newspaper?

Proof sucks. I stumbled in there one time and had to leave becuase my testosterone level was not high enough.
and isn’t happy hour supposed to start sometime around 5?

No, no– this is a good thing in the end, I think. We don’t want amNY sending any of their readers to the EV. Let their readers send them anywhere but here.

$20 for all you can drink? Are you sure this isn’t an Olive Garden?

Ha Ha Sound: No, but it’s just as tacky.

Let them SAY they’re in the East Village, while you KNOW you’re in the East Village and you’ll both be happy!
