If you didn’t know, Jay-Z has a sports bar / nightclub in the Flatiron District. The name 40-40 derives from a baseball term, where a player has stolen 40 bases and hit 40 home runs in a season.
Tip for Tourists: NYC sports bars are nothing like sports bars at other places. The most upscale, gorgeous looking places can be sports bars with high-end pub food. I’ve seen places in the city with little 4″ screens on the bartaps, and even framed screens in the restrooms. New Yorkers take their sports very seriously. Even if the only good team we have is the Yankees.
