Ummmmmm. I almost just fell to the floor when I saw on Facebook that Savalas is closing this weekend! Savalas was my home away from home. My Williamsburg staple. The one place I knew I could go and dance to hip hop and just get grimey with it. Picklebacks! Jalapeno Tequila! Say it aint so!
This is devastating! Please come out this Fri night to support the many good times that were had at one of the OG bars in the burg. Ugh. I haven’t been this upset since we lost Black Betty.
