Michael J. Burg: Bartender
Quotes
-
Bartender : Are you guys new in the neighborhood?
Ben : Are you kidding? There was a famous "sip in" right here in this bar to challenge the New York State regulation that prohibited bars from serving homosexuals.
Bartender : Yeah, we have a clipping from The New York Times framed here somewhere.
Ben : 1966. Me and four other guys, we came in here accompanied by five reporters. When we were denied service, we denounced the State Liquor Authority.
Bartender : Oh my God. You're that guy?
Ben : Yeah, I was one of the guys.
Bartender : Wow. Well, this round's on me, fellas.
[Ben and George start laughing as soon as the bartender leaves]
George : You are such a liar!
Ben : What?
George : You'll do anything for a free drink!
Ben : Well, I knew the guy who thought it up.
George : Who, Frank?
Ben : Yeah. That was his claim to fame.
George : Oh, I thought his claim to fame was something entirely different.
Ben : Well, that too.
[both start laughing even harder]
