HEARTBREAKING! FOLEY'S TO CLOSE ITS DOORS!

"Foley's was always about the people!" 

--Shaun Clancy

There's no other way to say this, I'm devastated and if you've been there, you should be too.

Foley's in New York City is closing due to this horrendous pandemic. Shaun Clancy just made the announcement on Twitter.

This is difficult. Shaun is one of the good ones. Over the past 10 years we here at Bleeding Yankee Blue would write about Foley's. I'd visit Foley's.

Hell, Pete Caldera of the Bergen Record and most of the Yankee beat writers, not to mention the true Yankee fans, would all go to Foley's.  It is literally one of my favorite bars in New York City.  We even interviewed Shaun here at BYB.  September 8, 2015.  Read FOLEY'S NY'S SHAUN CLANCY & A CHANCE TO MEET THE POPE.

Shaun was great then, he's great now, and if there is anyone out there with any ideas on how to keep Foley's alive, we need to try and help! I mean this!  They have some of the greatest workers over there, good people, hard working folks.  I'm just heartbroken.

Shaun, I want to chat with you today. If you see this, DM me on Twitter. We'll set up a call.

Horrible news. So sad about this and all that has happened with this country the past few months.
