Stanley’s Bar, Brooklyn, New York

Oh.

I was drinking at Old Stanley’s Bar in Brooklyn, NY, with friends when someone in my group pointed out this sign (above) that was displayed behind the bar.

A debate ensued with another Irish group who were there and I was told that this was the ‘norm’ in NY bars. I spent two Summers living in NY and never saw anything quite like it.

I’d like to hear other Irish people’s opinion on this.

(btw this was not an Irish bar)

Anyone?

I spotted these NY plates in Brooklyn last night. I tried getting their attention but was too late. Would love to buy my fellow Kerry brethren a beer if I could track them down.
