Now that World Cup is over, whose balls are they watching at Gym Bar?

TIME TO SWITCH LOADS
Eagle redid the calendar on its website. Now you only see a week’s worth of info. If you want to see beyond that, you have to click “Load More.” I once overheard people at Eagle saying “More Load.” That’s very different. Showtune Sundays at Lit with Ralphie the Singing Bartender is drawing a huge crowd. They’re coming for show tunes but loving the food and drinks specials and Ralphie.
