Video shows a Mississippi crowd telling off a man who yelled &#8220;f*** the Jews&#8221; to Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy, who is Jewish.
Video posted online Friday shows a young male walking by and shouting &#8220;Hey, f*** the Jews! F*** you, Dave Portnoy&#8221; to the Barstool founder, who appears to be in the middle of one of his famed pizza review videos in Mississippi.
&#8220;Get out of here!&#8221; one person in the crowd shouted back, and another shouted, &#8220;Not cool.&#8221;
Portnoy told the male to come on camera, but video of the pair talking is inaudible.
&#8220;That was awful,&#8221; the crowd continued to react. One male even shouted, &#8220;Hey, f*** you, p****. F*** you!&#8221;
The male who shouted about &#8220;the Jews&#8221; appears to stick up his middle finger as he is escorted away from the incident.

Back in May, Portnoy reacted to people ordering a &#8220;f*** the Jews&#8221; sign at a Barstool bar in Center City, Philadelphia. After his <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/dave-portnoy-coming-for-throats-after-f-the-jews-sign-spotted-at-philly-barstool-bar">initial reaction</a> was to go scorched earth on the people who ordered the sign, he said he would rather <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/dave-portnoy-finds-alternative-punishment-for-patrons-who-ordered-f-the-jews-sign-at-his-bar">send the individuals to Auschwitz</a> &#8220;to learn about the Holocaust.&#8221;
“And the more I thought about it, these are young f***ing morons who did this,” Portnoy <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/dave-portnoy-finds-alternative-punishment-for-patrons-who-ordered-f-the-jews-sign-at-his-bar">said</a> in the video, referring to his initial reaction. “They’re drunk. It’s like, do you really want to ruin somebody’s life — and let me be honest, I don’t know what’s going on in the world, well, I do in the Middle East obviously, but I’ve been doing Barstool for 20 years. I’ve had more hate, more antisemitism in the last year or year and a half than I’ve ever had doing it.”
“I’m sending these kids to Auschwitz. They’ve agreed to go,” Portnoy said. “That’s of course the Holocaust concentration camp … We’re going to send these kids to Auschwitz and they’re going to do a tour of the concentration camps in Germany and hopefully learn something, and maybe, like, their lives aren’t ruined, they think twice … to me, that’s a fair outcome.”
One of the patrons initially accepted responsibility for the incident and the offer from Portnoy, but later denied involvement. It&#8217;s unclear if the trip ever happened.

Man Yells ‘F*** The Jews’ At Dave Portnoy, Gets Told Off By Mississippi Crowd

Mississippi

U.S.

Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy posted an update on Tuesday, sharing what he said would be his final comments on the saga that unfolded after patrons at his bar in Center City, Philadelphia, ordered bottle service and paid for a sign that said &#8220;f*** the Jews.&#8221;
Following the incident, Portnoy said that he spoke to the student who&#8217;d uploaded video of the sign to Instagram — Mohammed Adnan Khan — and initially, he&#8217;d been apologetic and tearful. Rather than ruin a college student&#8217;s life, Portnoy offered to send him to Auschwitz in the hopes of turning a hateful incident into a learning experience.
Over the next couple of days, the Barstool founder shared several updates — and ultimately revealed that he&#8217;d revoked his offer after Khan backtracked and claimed he had no connection to the antisemitic sign. By Tuesday, Khan had gone a step further.
Portnoy began his update with a post on X advertising a crowd-funding page — that he said was more fitting for a satire site like The Onion or The Babylon Bee — in which an apparent friend of Khan requested people send money to help him &#8220;stand against trial by public opinion&#8221; and support his &#8220;fight for due process and redemption.&#8221;
&#8220;Dude uploads an antisemitic video to his own instagram like a brain dead moron and now is playing victim. What a world,&#8221; Portnoy commented on the graphic.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Portnoy then shared Khan&#8217;s video statement — which he used to promote his GiveSendGo page — in which the now-suspended Temple University student complained that Portnoy had &#8220;sensationalized&#8221; the incident and he had done nothing more than document someone else&#8217;s behavior. Khan argued that the sign &#8220;reminded people of a lot of the unjust things that Israel is doing around the world,&#8221; and for that reason he&#8217;d felt compelled to &#8220;report on it.&#8221;
Khan went on to complain that the sign was just &#8220;an edgy joke&#8221; and claimed that he was being made into a victim of cancel culture.
Portnoy was not buying it, however, and he shot back, &#8220;This dude is a flat liar. I talked to him on the phone with his buddy and they both owned up to it and cried about it. He then lawyered up after speaking with his family. His name got out because he’s a moron and uploaded &#8216;F*** the Jews&#8217; sign to his instagram before I even knew about it. He already went viral without me.&#8221;
&#8220;He spreads hate and uses the conflict in Middle East as his excuse. And did it in a bar with my company&#8217;s name on it. Now he’s trying to profit from it. I’m sure he’ll make money because there is lots of antisemitism in the world. Regardless this is the least surprising thing ever,&#8221; Portnoy continued. &#8220;He is the definition of a coward. Zero accountability for his actions. I don’t care what religion you are or even how you feel about Middle East. This was an act of pure hate and this should disgust you.&#8221;

But the drama did not end there. Portnoy followed with a video response to the GiveSendGo page for Khan — which, at the time of publication, had not even raised $1000 — and a video clip that he said was Khan throwing water on a sleeping homeless person.

Throwing yet another twist into the ongoing situation stemming from a &#8220;F*** the Jews&#8221; sign that was spotted at Barstool Sansom Street, a sports bar in Center City Philadelphia, Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy announced that one of the patrons who initially took responsibility for the incident had backtracked.
Taking to X to deliver the follow up, Portnoy said that Mo Kahn — one of the two people he spoke to who had said on Sunday that they were behind the sign — had taken to social media to write a lengthy post disavowing any and all connection to it. Instead, he said that he had simply shared video of something that happened at the bar while he was there.
&#8220;Quick update. Mo Kahn is no longer taking any responsibility or involvement for the &#8216;F*** the Jews&#8217; sign at Barstool Samson. [He] is basically lawyering up and blaming it all on his friend now and is saying he was just a citizen journalist. It is a 180 from my convo with him yesterday. Needless to say his trip to Poland has been revoked,&#8221; Portnoy said in his caption.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Portnoy shared a screenshot of Kahn&#8217;s post, showing where he told his followers that he had not been the one who &#8220;paid for or requested that sign,&#8221; and said that his only mistake had been making &#8220;the poor decision to record and upload it.&#8221; He then apologized for anyone whose feelings had been hurt by his post, adding, &#8220;I hope honest and open dialogue can come out of this incident so we can address the deeper realities of the world we live in.&#8221;
The Barstool Sports founder, who had previously spoken to Kahn and one other patron (whose name he did not reveal), said on Sunday that both had taken responsibility for the sign and had subsequently agreed to take a trip to Auschwitz and try to learn something from the experience.
Upon seeing Kahn&#8217;s post, Portnoy called to speak with him again, but this time, he said the conversation was very different. Kahn recorded the call and had his parents with him, and insisted that he&#8217;d had nothing to do with the sign — rather, he said that he&#8217;d felt pressured to take responsibility for it when they spoke the first time.
Portnoy said that Kahn, a 21-year-old Temple University student who has since been suspended, attempted to distance himself from the situation, saying that he would &#8220;never&#8221; do anything like that — but then Portnoy came across an old social media post of Kahn&#8217;s that included an anti-Semitic joke from six months earlier.
&#8220;I&#8217;m like, &#8216;How do you explain that one if you&#8217;re not ever doing anything like that?'&#8221; Portnoy continued. &#8220;He&#8217;s like, &#8216;Well, I really won&#8217;t be able to explain that, maybe my parents can explain that.&#8217; Your parents can explain the &#8216;how you find a Jew, you throw a quarter on the floor&#8217; joke? Not like — I mean, whatever, I&#8217;ve got thick skin. But this kid couldn&#8217;t even — he wouldn&#8217;t even admit he did it. He&#8217;s like, &#8216;That&#8217;s on a social media channel, like, I deleted, I don&#8217;t even have that anymore.'&#8221;
&#8220;Buddy, what are you doing?&#8221; Portnoy asked then, saying that he&#8217;d hoped to be able to turn a bad decision into a teachable moment, but that Kahn&#8217;s 180-degree turn had made him change his mind. &#8220;Maybe if you actually learn a life lesson, maybe if people watch you go to Poland and seem like you&#8217;re changed, this gets behind you.&#8221;
Portnoy concluded by saying that he&#8217;d rescinded his offer to send Kahn to Poland, arguing that if he wasn&#8217;t willing to take responsibility for his actions, he was not ready to learn the kind of lesson that would help him behave differently in the future.

Barstool Patron Flips, Claims No Responsibility For ‘F*** The Jews’ Sign. Portnoy Isn’t Buying It.

Holocaust

Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy turned an ABC News interview on its head when a reporter from Philadelphia affiliate 6abc suggested that he and his company — and white men in general — were truly the ones at fault after patrons held up a sign that read &#8220;F*** the Jews&#8221; at his bar in Philadelphia.
Portnoy, who is Jewish, shared a video on X detailing the incident and saying that after the story about the sign went viral, numerous outlets had reached out to him to talk about it. He agreed, and was talking to a reporter from 6abc when the whole thing went sideways and he caught the entire exchange on video.
&#8220;So @6abc begged me to do an interview about the incident at our bar. Since it was local I agreed. Then the reporter tried to say Barstool and I and white men were responsible for the incident. Austin started recording once it got contentious,&#8221; Portnoy captioned the clip.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Portnoy explained that he&#8217;d been happy to do the interview initially, but that the outlet had pulled a &#8220;bait and switch&#8221; by pitching one reporter and then having a different reporter do the interview. The new reporter had then blindsided him with a quote claiming that Barstool Sports had created a &#8220;culture of harassment&#8221; and was therefore responsible for the hateful sign displayed by patrons — and things only went downhill from there.
&#8220;Then she shifts. Then she does what a media scumbag does,&#8221; Portnoy said. &#8220;She&#8217;s like, well, she pulls a quote out of her a** from like, I don&#8217;t even know, a made up journal?&#8221;
Portnoy cut to video from the actual interview then.
&#8220;Here&#8217;s who I would say is causing that type of environment: all these colleges who let Jewish kids get harassed on campus 24-7. I&#8217;ve been speaking out about this since it started. So these professors, I&#8217;d love to know — first of all, that sounds like a made up — I don&#8217;t know what that quote is,&#8221; Portnoy said to the reporter, asking where the professors were from.
The reporter pushed back, suggesting Portnoy was wasting time by asking for background information, but eventually revealed that the quoted professor was at the University of Virginia.
Portnoy then challenged the reporter directly, asking, &#8220;Who&#8217;s creating more hate right now in the world, would you say Barstool Sports and white men or college campuses?&#8221;
After a long pause, Portnoy clarified, &#8220;That was a question to you.&#8221;
&#8220;I&#8217;m a journalist, I&#8217;m asking the questions,&#8221; the reporter protested.
&#8220;I don&#8217;t play by those rules. What does that mean, you&#8217;re a journalist?&#8221; Portnoy shot back. &#8220;I&#8217;m a journalist. I run a big media organization. I just asked you a question &#8230; I asked you a question, you answer the question. You answer the question.&#8221;
The reporter continued to object: &#8220;You&#8217;re not running this interview.&#8221;
&#8220;All right, then, the interview is over,&#8221; Portnoy said, closing his laptop.
Cutting back to his direct video format, he added, &#8220;This piece of s***. ABC, the person who set it up, gave me one reporter, bait and switch to the other. F*** ABC! F*** ABC! … I forgot how much I hate f***ing journalists. This f***ing piece of s***!&#8221;

Portnoy, who is Jewish, initially posted an &#8220;<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/dave-portnoy-coming-for-throats-after-f-the-jews-sign-spotted-at-philly-barstool-bar" target="_blank" rel="noopener">emergency press conference</a>&#8221; and vowed that he was &#8220;coming for throats&#8221; over the incident that took place at Barstool Sansom Street, said that he did not want to &#8220;ruin a couple 20 year olds lives.&#8221;

&#8220;All right, real quick update,&#8221; Portnoy began, recalling just how angry he&#8217;d been when he first learned about the sign. &#8220;You literally could have cooked an egg on my head. that&#8217;s how much steam and heat I had coming out of my ears.&#8221;
&#8220;And the more I thought about it, these are young f***ing morons who did this,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;They&#8217;re drunk.

I&#8217;ve had more hate, more antisemitism in the last year or year and a half than I&#8217;ve ever had doing it.&#8221;
Portnoy went on to note just how mainstream antisemitism had become, and argued that even though his initial reaction had been to burn them all, he felt that the best way to put a stop to that was ultimately through education.
&#8220;I&#8217;m sending these kids to Auschwitz. They&#8217;ve agreed to go,&#8221; Portnoy said, explaining that he&#8217;d spoken with the families of the people involved. &#8220;That&#8217;s of course the Holocaust concentration camp &#8230; We&#8217;re going to send these kids to Auschwitz and they&#8217;re going to do a tour or the concentration camps in Germany and hopefully learn something, and maybe like their lives aren&#8217;t ruined, they think twice &#8230; to me, that&#8217;s a fair outcome.&#8221;

Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy posted a video on Sunday that he described as an &#8220;emergency press conference,&#8221; reacting to a light-up sign — with the message &#8220;F*** the Jews&#8221; — that had been spotted by patrons at a Barstool-owned bar in Philadelphia.
Portnoy said that he&#8217;d had no complaint about the Center City bar, Barstool Sansom Street, in the past. &#8220;Usually a great bar. You know, bottle service, people buy drinks, you get a sign,&#8221; he said. &#8220;There was a sign yesterday that said, &#8216;F*** the Jews.'&#8221;

&#8220;&#8216;I&#8217;ve been shaking. I&#8217;ve been so mad for the last two hours. Like I instantly got on, this is why the Emergency Press Conference is late, because I was so over the top,&#8221; Portnoy, who is Jewish, said in the video, explaining that before even taking to social media to address the situation, he had done everything he could to track down everyone responsible for allowing it to happen.
&#8220;I&#8217;m gonna f***ing make it my life f***ing mission to ruin these people. Like, I&#8217;m coming for your throat. I&#8217;m never ending,&#8221; he continued, saying he&#8217;d spent the last two hours &#8220;on the trail&#8221; digging up as much information as he could.
&#8220;You think I&#8217;m going to put up with this s**t at my bar?&#8221; he asked. &#8220;So I&#8217;ve been hunting down waitresses, the table who did it, and everything you can f***ing name, because I want f***ing consequences for f***ing actions &#8230; Trust me, I have been on it.&#8221;
Portnoy went on to reveal that he had tracked down and fired the two waitresses who held up the sign, referring to one of the two as &#8220;one of the dumbest f***ing humans I&#8217;ve ever talked to in my life,&#8221; and that he had spoken to a Temple University student who he said was responsible for posting a since-deleted video of the sign via Instagram.
Saying that he&#8217;d had &#8220;the kid&#8221; in tears and swearing that he was not antisemitic, Portnoy added, &#8220;I don&#8217;t buy it for a second. Who the f*** would do that sign in my f***in bar? You think I&#8217;m just gonna sit here? I&#8217;m gonna make it my mission to put you in lights. Tell me how do I make this right before I go ape-s**t. You want to take anti-Semitism classes? You want to do whatever? You make it feel right. I don&#8217;t need your tears &#8230; Trust me, they&#8217;re pulling the footage.&#8221;
&#8220;I&#8217;m 20 steps ahead and I&#8217;m using everything.

Dave Portnoy ‘Coming For Throats’ After ‘F*** The Jews’ Sign Spotted At Philly Barstool Bar

Dave Portnoy 'Coming For Throats' After 'F*** The Jews' Sign Spotted At Philly Barstool Bar

Dave Portnoy is again weighing in on the viral Bill Belichick interview and fallout, saying there’s a “zero percent chance” Belichick wrote the statement accusing CBS News of &#8220;selectively editing.&#8221;
The Barstool Sports founder sat down with journalist Megyn Kelly to provide insight into the situation, adding that he knows the 73-year-old North Carolina head football coach and his 24-year-old girlfriend, Jordon Hudson, “personally.”
“He lives on Nantucket. I live on Nantucket. I&#8217;ve met Jordon, so it&#8217;s a very awkward thing to see,” Portnoy told Kelly on her Thursday podcast.  
<iframe loading="lazy" title="Dave Portnoy Tells Megyn New Details on Bill Belichick&#039;s Relationship with 24-Year-Old Girlfriend" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ib08734cRdc?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
&#8220;In my years following Bill Belichick, I would say my knowledge of him, there’s roughly zero percent chance he wrote that,” he said of the statement. “But he just doesn’t care generally what anyone thinks about him,” Portnoy continued. “So to go write that —  my guess would be Jordon wrote that.”
“I was not expecting this interview,” he added. “I was squirming. I don&#8217;t know what to expect. I don&#8217;t know what to think about it. It certainly was awkward … I don&#8217;t know why she&#8217;s so involved, I really don&#8217;t. I&#8217;ve met her. She&#8217;s nice enough, she&#8217;s running the whole show.” 
Portnoy said, “Every piece of Bill Belichick business goes through her … Like if that was maybe not in a romantic relationship, and that&#8217;s his PR manager … nobody&#8217;s blinking at that … It’s just a very awkward situation. The age gap is huge, clearly, but she runs the show.”
“It&#8217;s such a juxtaposition of a guy who seemingly had no media savvy, but was always just straightforward, no time for the media. Now, having his life run by a [24-year-old], it certainly it’s eye-opening for a guy like me,” he added.
“I also know I&#8217;m gonna run into them in Nantucket, and I&#8217;m gonna be carrying my watermelon out of Stop-and-Shop, and I don&#8217;t want it to be an awkward conversation,” Portnoy told Kelly.  “It went super viral. It&#8217;s all anybody&#8217;s talking about … because it&#8217;s just such a departure from how a sports fan page or fan everybody thought of Bill Belichick.”
Kelly said Hudson’s actions had entered the realm of “elder abuse” and gave her “Dr. Jill [Biden]” vibes. 
She said if the “situation were reversed” and it was an older woman dating a controlling younger man, “we’d be accusing him of elder abuse and asking whether he’s guilty of coercive control, and whether this woman is OK.”
Belichick released a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/bill-belichick-accuses-cbs-of-selectively-editing-interview-to-make-younger-girlfriend-look-bad">statement</a> following the tense interview going viral, saying they had previously agreed to only discuss topics related to the book and not his relationship but those requests were “not honored.” 
“[Hudson] was not deflecting any specific question or topic but simply doing her job to ensure the interview stayed on track,” he continued, saying the interview was “selectively edited” in an effort to “suggest a false narrative.”

A pizza shop owner is getting mixed reviews for kicking out a family that was dining in his restaurant recently, with some online critics saying he had every right to do it while others are outraged.
Dragon Pizza in Somerville, Massachusetts, became the topic of heated debate following the March 14 incident and subsequent social media posts. 
The owner recently shared an <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DHPnJmjst6c/">update via Instagram</a>, writing, “To all our guests with children: Anyone who has visited our restaurant knows we are a pizza shop that loves kids.”
“Sadly, we had to demand a group of negligent parents Friday to take their families home because they were disrespecting our dining room, other guests, and our team,” the post continued. 
“Our restaurant, or any restaurant, is not a place for unsupervised children to play,&#8221; it said. &#8220;It is here to share dining experiences.”
Dragon Pizza listed six points on the incident, noting that they “welcome all children dining in our restaurant with open arms” and “we do not appreciate parents who treat our pizza as a cheap, simple option to feed their children until they can have their own dinner.” 
The post concluded by saying, “It makes us very sad, but we refuse to allow entitled lazy parents to damage our reputation and the overall dining experience for all our guests. Respect restaurants. Bring your family to them. Raise your family in them. We are your community too.”
Restaurant owner Charlie Redd <a href="https://www.boston.com/food/food-news/2025/03/18/dragon-pizza-guests-with-kids/">said</a> in an interview with Boston.com that he is also a father and wants to make guests with children &#8220;comfortable.&#8221;
“It’s part of my philosophy to hospitality, for restaurants to engage everyone,&#8221; he told the outlet. &#8220;We’ve been very successful here at Dragon accommodating groups with kids.”
“The fault lies where the parents had to be spoken to multiple times and were ignoring our requests and our instructions to watch their kids,” Redd said. “Kids belong in restaurants. It’s a lot of fun.”
While many supported the restaurant in the comments, others questioned the decision to kick the family out.
“Why can’t parents give their kids pizza as a cheap easy option?” one Instagram commenter wrote, referencing one of the points made in the restaurant’s original post.
“Too many parents these days don’t understand that they need to actually parent their children. Good on you for sticking up for your staff and other patrons,” another person wrote.
Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy, who had a run-in with Redd in the past, also weighed in on the situation with a profanity-laced <a href="https://x.com/stoolpresidente/status/1902400901928657073">post</a> on X that read, in part, “This has created quite the (conundrum) for yours truly because I absolutely despise this dude (Charlie) Redd.&#8221;
“He probably blew this out of proportion because this guy just likes being an a**hole. This guy is a professional a**hole. There’s no other pizza place that keeps ending up in the news,” he went on.
Portnoy got into an argument with Redd in 2023 while visiting the restaurant for his popular One Bite Challenge, which involves him rating pizzerias. The social media personality described the slice as “super floppy” and gave it a 6.4 out of 10. 
The owner told Portnoy he was in the wrong for “judging a business with one bite.” This led to a heated exchange that <a href="https://www.nbcboston.com/news/local/barstools-dave-portnoy-speaks-out-about-dragon-pizza-feud-its-like-living-in-a-bizarre-world/3130297/">went viral</a> at the time.

The following is an excerpt taken from the new book &#8220;<a href="https://www.amazon.com/How-Jester-Became-King-Unauthorized/dp/B0DV3W4QBN/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">How the Jester Became King: Dave Portnoy and the Real Unauthorized Story of Barstool Sports.</a>&#8221; by Charlie Stanton (Post Hill Press, December 2024)
* * *
October 2003
Dave was sweaty and beyond exhausted as he bent down to drop off a stack of newspapers next to his bin at the Alewife T-Station in Cambridge. Sporting his questionable goatee and a beat-up Red Sox hat, his skin reeked of the cigar he had smoked inside his maroon 1992 Plymouth minivan while he trudged from station to station. His breath was a mix of tobacco and the hot Italian beef sandwich he’d ordered in between stops. Portnoy needed a shower. As he leaned over to fill the bin, he paused. The sound of fabric ripping echoed across the brown quarry tiles that lined the floors and walls of the subway entrance. Commuters turned their heads at the noise, and their eyes fixated on Portnoy. He knew immediately what had happened:
<blockquote>“It might as well have been like a gunshot went off in Alewife Station. Everybody in Alewife and maybe all of Cambridge just froze. And I was reduced to doing the ‘Oh my god did I just split my pants?’ maneuver. This, of course, is when you have a glazed expression over your face as you feel your ass to see what the damage is. Honestly, it was like time froze for a couple minutes.”</blockquote>
It was an unseasonably warm fall afternoon, just a few months after Mike Portnoy had given his son his $25,000 blessing. Dave, who had quit his sales job and moved back home with his parents to save money, was now spending it hand-delivering his newspapers to more than 100 Barstool Sports bins he had placed around Boston — a job that made grad school look like Margaritaville.
After all of his bins were filled, Portnoy would begin handing out his newspapers to the public, aggressively. The streets of Boston weren’t for the faint of heart. “When we upgraded from black and white to color copies, I would be just screaming things like ‘We got color now! We’re so much better than these other (papers)!’ Whatever the hook was.” Like a vendor peddling overpriced beer at nearby Fenway Park, Portnoy would yell at – borderline berate – commuters to take a copy.
<div class="image"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-large wp-image-889947 aligncenter" src="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/03/71YW4ed4iL._SL1500_-384x576.jpg" alt="" width="384" height="576" srcset="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/03/71YW4ed4iL._SL1500_-384x576.jpg 384w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/03/71YW4ed4iL._SL1500_-200x300.jpg 200w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/03/71YW4ed4iL._SL1500_-768x1152.jpg 768w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/03/71YW4ed4iL._SL1500_.jpg 1000w" sizes=" (max-width: 384px) 100vw, 384px" /></div>
Portnoy was on his own when it came to distribution following Barstool’s first issue on August 27, 2003, when the temp company Labor Ready he hired to help him sent him mostly drifters, half of whom didn’t show up. “Let’s just say they weren’t the most dedicated workers to ever come down the pike,” Portnoy explained. And according to Portnoy, the outfit in Atlanta where he bought newspaper bins, Go Plastics, wasn’t able to deliver the bins on time for the day of the launch, which only compounded this calamity. Most commuters were unable to find Portnoy’s newspapers, as Barstool Sports sat inconspicuously inside plastic bags next to other competitors’ fully marked bins.
Of the 40 train stations where workers were supposed to hand out copies of Dave’s paper that day, only about 15 operated as planned. Portnoy would eventually hire local models to hand out his papers, which, to no surprise, worked better but were too expensive to continue with. “Chaotic and nearly disastrous,” is how Dave described his paper’s first days in existence. Unbeknownst to Portnoy, it was a phrase that would become the narrative of Barstool’s entire operation for the next 20 years.
At the start of Portnoy’s maiden voyage, he was able to produce several thousand copies of his weekly newspaper. This was dwarfed by the daily circulation of the 450,000 newspapers The Boston Globe printed, and the 300,000 distributed by both The Boston Herald and Metro Boston, the city’s largest free paper. But eventually Barstool would reach a peak of 40,000 issues every other week, which was on par with most other alt-weekly publications such as The Phoenix or The Improper Bostonian. Reaching this number was an unlikely development to everyone around Dave in those early days, including his production manager Erin Boyce.
Boyce worked at The Daily Item of Lynn, a neighboring town’s paper; she had extensive experience inside the publishing industry and agreed to help Portnoy after connecting through a friend of a friend. “I really only thought it would last six, maybe 12 issues. I’ve been in the newspaper industry for many years, and to start a publication in a dying industry is kind of unheard of. Little did I know 200 issues later, it would become part of my life for almost nine years.”
Boyce’s help was invaluable, but there was no doubt the 26-year-old was doing the work of five people just to produce the meager eight-page publication. Originally, Portnoy published his newspaper once a week. Mondays were the busiest in terms of writing, and Dave often stayed up past 2 a.m. finishing the last articles for that week’s issue. Tuesdays, Portnoy took his work over to the nearby graphic designer, who worked with Boyce to lay out the paper. Later that day, the layout was taken to Boyce’s printer, and once the thousands of copies were printed, Portnoy filled up his beaten-down minivan to the brim. “When I pick up Barstool Sports from our printer company, I swear I can hear her scream. I actually think the bottom of the car scrapes against the cement when it is fully loaded.”
Wednesdays started at 4:30 a.m. Portnoy made the 45-minute drive south down Route 1A to Boston, dropping his publication off at the bins he had placed inside various T-stations. “I had bins at T-stops I didn’t know existed before that,” Portnoy said of his paper route. He also stopped at select stores, bars, and restaurants he somehow convinced to take his newspapers, like the Grand Canal bar near The Boston Garden or Bayview Liquors in Southie.

After emptying his van around 9:00 a.m., Dave headed to a T station and handed out copies of Barstool Sports to commuters. Around noon, he drove back to Swampscott to write; call potential advertisers (the paper had fake ones and real ones); or fix whatever part of the business was melting down that day. Around 4:00 p.m., he drove back into Boston to hand out papers again until returning home, well after dinner.
As for the rest of the week, Thursday was a repeat of Wednesday, while Friday, Saturday, and Sunday were reserved for writing. And Portnoy would spend each Monday just like the previous one, cramming in last-minute changes until the candle was burned at both ends. Unsurprisingly, this routine began taking a toll on his health, but as 2004 approached, people slowly began to read Portnoy’s paper. “It was always a good reception and when I judged it, it would be 10 people who took the paper and said they enjoyed it the first time I did it. The next issue would be 20 people, and the next issue would be 40, and the next 80. So, it always was slowly growing and there was something in my gut that was like I’m on to something here.”

Christmas came early for a pizzeria in Baltimore thanks to Barstool Founder <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/dave-portnoy">Dave Portnoy</a> who stopped by and gave a massive gift to keep the place going that was ready to close its doors on December 25.
In a video posted on <a href="https://x.com/stoolpresidente/status/1871329945487569018">X</a> that’s since gone viral, Portnoy decided to check out a Maryland pizza joint to rate it as part of his One Bite Pizza rankings. 
Will, a veteran and owner of Tiny Brick Oven, started talking to Portnoy about how they were getting ready to close their doors forever on Christmas Day because the city had refused to give him a liquor license, something they had already been granted to his competition.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

He told Portnoy that without it, he was struggling and didn’t see how he could stay open one more day past Christmas. The Barstool Founder put in his pizza order to rank it and said, “What happens if this pizza is great and you start getting busy making money, can you stay open?”
The owner agreed he would then “stay open.”

Portnoy turned to the camera and said, “We’re going to have to keep this place open&#8221; before he stepped outside with his new pie to take a bite.
“This is a reheat and very good,” Portnoy said. “Thin, New York kind of style. Like I really like it. There’s no way this place should be going out of business. None. So, that guy was the most upbeat guy you are ever going to have. Christmas spirit Will.”
“So, I’m going to give this pizza,&#8221; he added, before he headed back to the door and asked Will flat out, “How much money do you need to stay open for a year?”
The owner thought about it, but at first struggled to come up with a number. Eventually, he said, with a liquor license, he could continue to stay open if he had $60,000.
Portnoy then reached out his hand, shook it, telling the owner the matter was a done deal. Will was visibly shocked and excited and started to cheer for Portnoy.
The two exchanged numbers as Portnoy promised he would text him and that he would have the money before Christmas to keep the Tiny Brick Oven shop open for a year.
In the end, the Barstool Founder gave the little pizza shop a rating of 7.9, something that Will was overjoyed about.
“Merry Christmas,” Portnoy said as he walked out of the pizzeria.

Barstool founder <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/dave-portnoy">Dave Portnoy</a> admitted that Vice President Kamala Harris and the Democratic Party left him “no choice” but to vote for former President Donald Trump in the election.
In a lengthy video posted on Wednesday on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DCBRZOhuakN/?hl=en">Instagram</a>, Portnoy said Trump beat Harris because the Dem party forced people like him, independents, and moderates to vote for Trump.
“The Democrats gave us no choice,” Portnoy said. “That was the worst campaign, and the pure arrogance and the moral superiority have driven people away. If you say you’re voting for Trump, suddenly you’re a Nazi, you’re Hitler, you’re garbage. Enough. Enough!”
“So when you call us that, you’re calling the majority of the country ‘racists, Hitlers, Nazis.’ I don’t think you get the words of what that means,” he added, noting that Democrats alienated voters by acting “like you’re better than us, smarter than us.”
“I voted for him [Trump]. And I felt I had no choice but to vote for him because of the campaign that the Democrats ran,” Portnoy continued, labeling Trump’s victory “clear” and “decisive,” with “millions and millions and millions of people” voting for the former president.

The Barstool founder previously made <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/stop-the-gaslighting-barstool-founder-calls-kamala-worst-presidential-candidate-ever">headlines</a> when he unleashed a rant on the media for the “gaslighting” of the American people to push Harris, whom he said is the “worst presidential candidate” we have ever had in our history.
In a lengthy anti-Kamala rant posted on <a href="https://x.com/stoolpresidente/status/1845622877317640214">X,</a> Portnoy said the “gaslighting” claim that the Vice President is some kind of “change candidate” and is amazing had to stop, pointing out how she couldn&#8217;t even answer simple questions during friendly interviews.
Portnoy started out his video talking about how at recent rallies, Harris has told the crowd, “It’s time to turn the page,” trying to claim she’s something different than what we have seen from President Joe Biden — despite being the sitting VP — when it comes to the insane immigration problem, rising inflation, and crime. He also mentioned the disaster this administration has been around the world with regard to Afghanistan, Russia, Israel, and more.
<a href="https://www.amiracist.com/?_gl=1*jtghwp*_gcl_au*ODQ1NjYzNTg2LjE3Mjg5MDk3OTE.*_ga*MTc2NzM0NDQ2NS4xNzI4OTA5Nzkx*_ga_CZKR9ZYKJP*MTczMDEyMDgwOS40OS4xLjE3MzAxMjA4MzkuMzAuMC4w" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MATT WALSH’S ‘AM I RACIST?’ NOW STREAMING ON DAILYWIRE+</a>
He said she then goes on friendly interviews like with “The View” and “Late Night with Stephen Colbert” and she claims to be basically the same as Biden — he played a clip of her saying there’s nothing she would do differently — or that she starts rambling about the American people’s ambitions, hopes, and dreams.
“What are we talking about?” Portnoy said. “This is the candidate that people say is such a great leader? Stop gaslighting us &#8230; Kamala Harris can’t even answer the easiest question of all time. She never gives a straight answer. She doesn’t seem to be able to put coherent thoughts together.”
“I am so sick of being gaslighted like she’s some great candidate,” he added. “There was a reason when she ran for president last time she didn’t get one vote. She dropped out before the primaries. There’s a reason the Democrats waited till after Biden got the nomination because she wouldn’t have gotten it again.”

Media outlets like <a href="https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/trump-mcdonalds-troll-harris-1235138509/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rolling Stone magazine</a>, <a href="https://x.com/Newsweek/status/1848324596333740149" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Newsweek</a>, and <a href="https://x.com/brianstelter/status/1848125427232940440" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CNN</a> have slammed Trump for what they’ve called a “bizarre&#8221; photo-op and a “staged” event for his 15 minutes of work at McDonald’s, where he drew attention to the claim by Vice President Kamala Harris that she worked there in college, though the campaign has yet to provide proof. 
Portnoy took to <a href="https://x.com/stoolpresidente/status/1848388945937117328">social media</a> and sarcastically wrote on X that, “Woodward and Bernstein who?  Looks like <a href="https://x.com/Newsweek">@Newsweek</a> just wrapped up the Pulitzer for investigative journalism.  Next up. Rumors Santa may not be real&#8230;.”
The host of “The Megyn Kelly Show” podcast <a href="https://x.com/megynkelly/status/1848366344493801954">agreed</a>, and reposted a screenshot of one person’s response to the Newsweek headline calling it “perfect.” The person wrote sarcastically “Wait he wasn’t actually hired as the new fry guy?”
The host of “Young Turks” Cenk Uygur posted on <a href="https://x.com/cenkuygur/status/1848359707011915929">social media</a> and wrote, &#8220;Some in the press called Trump&#8217;s McDonald&#8217;s photo-op bizarre. This is how you lose credibility.”
“That was a home run photo-op,” he added.”He looked like a real person there, connecting with the average American. If you can&#8217;t see that, you&#8217;re totally blind.”

The Federalist’s Mollie Hemingway <a href="https://x.com/MZHemingway/status/1848452024872145054">wrote</a>, “Where would we be without corporate media telling us that Donald Trump is *not* an actual McDonald&#8217;s employee&#8230;”
Daily Wire host <a href="https://x.com/MattWalshBlog/status/1848404310121484381">Matt Walsh</a> also saw the Newsweek post and said jokingly on X, “This is false. Trump applied for the position online two weeks ago. He got the job and showed up to work his shift. The hours aren’t flexible enough to allow him to run for president though, so my sources tell me he’ll be transitioning into a part time cashier role at Kroger.”
Another person <a href="https://x.com/iowahawkblog/status/1848394006121808058">wrote</a> that Newsweek should “dust off the mantle, the Pulitzer Prize is on the way.&#8221; And &#8220;Mark my words, once the press takes down Trump in the McWatergate scandal, enrollment in journalism schools will quadruple.&#8221;
<a href="https://x.com/Newsweek/status/1848341344671891737">Newsweek later </a>doubled down on its Trump-McD’s piece with a second one about how the McDonald’s where Trump appeared had “failed its last health inspection.”
“An inspection report for the McDonald&#8217;s restaurant in Pennsylvania cited employees not having &#8216;hands clean and properly washed,'&#8221; the X post read.
Daily Wire Editor Emeritus and host Ben Shapiro reacted to the headlines and <a href="https://x.com/benshapiro/status/1848468283915440433?s=46&amp;t=yVg_AIbZC0FnyCtU4qPVYw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a> that the reason Leftists are &#8220;losing their minds over Trump&#8217;s McDonald&#8217;s campaign appearance&#8221; is &#8220;because it demonstrates that he likes and cares about regular Americans. That&#8217;s genuine. As opposed to Kamala, who must receive a briefing session to pretend to care.&#8221;
