Do Your Part To Stop Finnegan’s Wake From Opening A Three-Story Outdoor Bar


No.

So this is what’s happening: Supposedly, Finnegan’s Wake, a place with “a good place to get some tail” as its biggest compliment on Yelp, is about to expand and add a 3-story outdoor deck. A bill is currently before City Council to strike Bodine St. between Spring Garden & Green for this purpose; the new three-story outdoor space would neighbor a new space being built for the City’s Democratic Party and they have “already planned to let Finnegan’s have part of its property for this outdoor deck.” It doesn’t need to be spelled out, but as our tipster said, “That’s right – a city street given away to a bar so it can create an outdoor nightclub to be shared with the same politicians who gave away the street.”

So let’s take a few seconds to lay out what this means: Tapout tees, lots of hair gel, and lots and lots more cover bands. And no one deserves that. To let it be known that you are against this, sign the petition over here.

    you know that several of the city’s democratic leaders including the chairman are owners of Finnegan’s right?

    It will go unnoticed in terms of impact to the shit show it has been.
    Until the roof caves.. In 2001 after I won a 700 club award I vaguely
    recall walking through like a big shot thinking this will work on these
    Ladies. Should have had some Kelly green on.

    If you can pen more pineappleheads into Finnigans Wake there will be less pineappleheads in the real establishments in the area. I say let’em build the decks!

    I sent in the letter and added:

    “SHIT… I SHOULD GO AHEAD AND BUILT OUT A FRONT YARD AND ANNEX PART OF EAST CUMBERLAND ST. I PAY TAXES, RIGHT? WHO’S GONNA STOP ME???!!!”

    Finnegan’s Wake already blocks Bodine Street with a dumpster (the big construction type) on many days.

    You guys make it sound as though “a good place to get some tail” is a bad thing. (Sips coffee from ceramic titty mug he got in South Beach)
