The Barstool Sports bar in Philly went mega viral this weekend after “Fuck the Jews” was written on a bottle service sign and made it to social media:
Everyone involved have to be the biggest dumbasses in the world for going ahead with this. From the guys who ordered it, to the bottle service girls who thought the sign was justifiable, to then putting it on social media like it wasn’t going to get out there and upset people. We’ve just lost all common sense about what’s right and wrong, huh? Well when you do dumb shit you have the Internet and one of the biggest voices on it to hold you accountable.
Dave Portnoy, the Jewish Barstool founder, responded:
In an update he’s now sending the kids involved to Auschwitz to learn about the Holocaust:
Imagine one day you’re getting bottle service and in less than 24 hours you’re making plans to visit Auschwitz. That had to be the most insane Sunday Scaries. Temple put out a statement explaining that they suspended one of the kids believed to have been involved. As a Temple guy I disavow him (big of me). Honestly, they shouldn’t even be allowed to go to school there and be forced to transfer Villanova for being an idiot. Imagine if this sign didn’t say “Jews” but had another group written on it. The backlash would be MASSIVE.
