This is a somewhat amusing story

[IronEagle]

Having said that, I'm sure it's not amusing for the people involved. I post this because we've seen the receipts of Eagles' players dinners.

I don't find it amusing at all ... in fact, if I do not see a follow-up story that they removed that charge and refunded the proper amount, I will never patronize the Borgata or spend money in any Bobby Flay restaurant or on any of his products.

I will, however, continue to eat Fage yogurt ... that shit's good and I was eating it before Flay started shilling for it.

Gotta say this sounds like some of the stories surrounding Scores strip joint where people get exorbitantly billed on their CC.

Yeah it does ... something of an idle threat by me actually ... I rarely go to AC ... but I nearly bought a Bobby Flay spatula the other day at Kohl's.

Glad I didn't.

See this?

I thought you'd particularly like the part where Kay suggests YES network didn't think sleeping hosts made good television.

That's outrageous, but doesn't sound right

Hard to believe they wouldn't eat the bottle if the guy's story is completely true. Doesn't add up

[Maniac]

You think Bobby Flay had anything to do with this personally? I bet if he knew, he'd refund it in second. The guy doesn't seem like a moron. He knows his good reputation is worth way more than $3750. And he doesn't need the money.

[slag]

Well he better get involved or I'm not buying one fucking spatula.

[slag]

If he's a bottle burglar trying to scam Bobby, that would be different.

I didn't read the article to see if it mentions this but, they did bring the price down to $2000. Still hurts at almost half the price.

I'd like to know if the server got fired.
