Join The Apple Friday Night At McFaddens For Half Priced Drinks

In case you haven't heard, it's the end of the world as we know it.  Fortunately, this year the apocalypse also coincides with the Subway Series so I think we should celebrate.  Hence the Subway Series/End Of The World Party was born.

The Apple is going to be enjoying the Armageddon at McFaddens this Friday.  Because if the world is ending I want to go out the way I lived, half in the bag watching mediocre Mets baseball.  The good folks at McFaddens have offered half priced drinks for anyone on my guest list this Friday for the duration of the Mets/Yankees game.  Alternatively, if your a heavy drinker you'll have the option to do a $25 open bar for the ENTIRE GAME.

If you want to be on the guest list, just send me an email to readtheapple@gmail.com with the subject End Of The World and let me know how many you are bringing.

In case there's any confusion this is not a gag.  If you're gonna be at McFaddens Friday and want to drink cheaply and hang with The Apple send me an email now.  See you there.

McFaddens Raises Prices To Help Yankees Fans Feel At Home

Yankees fans headed to the Subway Series this weekend would be wise to bring plenty of cash.  McFaddens Citi Field announced today that anyone wearing Yankees attire at this weekends games will have to pay "Yankees Fans Prices".  Pricing will remain the same for Mets fans.

Jack Burcin from McFaddens explains,  "Yankees fans expect certain things when they come to the ballpark and we aim to be sensitive to their needs.  They need to prove their superiority by paying huge prices for everything and we've tried to accommodate that."

Under the new Yankees fan pricing a $6 beer now cost $12.  Prices for things like soda, water and food have also been substantially raised.  A cheeseburger is now $27 since the Yankees seem to be so in love with that number.

Yankees fans seem pretty happy with the move.  Gilberto Gomila of the Bronx explains.  "When I come to other stadiums I want to throw my money around and show people how insignificant they are.  This place lets me do that.  Sure they paid less for their beer but it tastes better when it's overpriced.  27 Baby!!!!!"

In a separate move also aimed at easing Yankees fans transition to Citi Field, the Mets have also announced that they will be bringing in extra panhandlers to patrol the 7 Train station pre and post game.

The Apple is glad to see this kind of unity.

Bay's Partying Becoming An Issue For Mets Brass

They say it takes players a year to adjust to New York.  While this may be proving true for Jason Bay on the field, he is apparently having no problem adjusting off of it.   An anonymous member of the Mets front office told the Apple today that upon returning from Cincinnati, the Mets left fielder was called into a meeting with management about his off the field activities.

After doing a little digging around, The Apple has uncovered this photo taken at McFaddens earlier this year which seems to justify the Mets concern.

Rafael Rojas is a bouncer at McFaddens and he seems to believe Bay may have fallen victim to some outside influences.  "Right off the bat, we started seeing him in here a lot.", says Rojas.  "Then he got mixed up with Cowbell Man and things really started to get crazy."

Rojas told us that Cowbell Man, who was already notorious around Flushing for his wild behavior, took Bay under his wing and the partying got crazier as Bay's performance suffered.  "He wasn't even getting changed after games.", Rojas recalls.  "He was coming in here in full uniform."

With his performance not making the grade on the field, the Mets are putting their foot down.  As of Friday, Bay is banned from McFadden's and the team has threatened to fine him if he is caught out with Cowbell Man again.

Cowbell Man declined to comment.
