FACTZ caught up with the Stoole President David Portnoy at Barstool’s restaurant and bar in Scottsdale.
Portnoy, who performed his LIVE Rundown show with BigCat & KFC to a packed house to kick off the #SuperBowl madness this week in Arizona.
We spoke with Portnoy to get all the FACTZ this week on every topic possible. Per usual, he never holds back (like a Gentleman):
- Arizona is really spread out, but a good place for the Super Bowl. The worst city is Houston, Texas- “a pain in the ass, the traffic is terrible.”
- Portnoy is still banned from Radio Row. “[Roger] Goodell still hates us [Barstool]. He takes himself too seriously. He’s a criminal, a crook, a coward.”
- More on Roger Goodell. “He stole money from charity, dragged me out of the Super Bowl in handcuffs, lied under oath to Congress … he’s a clown.”
- In conclusion, the NFL commissioner has “small dick syndrome.”
- Portnoy’s Super Bowl party list is “Luke Combs and David Matthews.” It’s a hard pass on the Fanatics Party, “I like Michael Rubin, but I will never step foot at his parties the rest of my life. That all stems from; I have a place in the Hamptons; he throws the biggest white party, and he invited me but wouldn’t give me extra invites for my girlfriend. Once you say no to me [he is dead to me], you will never see me at one of his parties for the rest of my life! You have to put your foot in the sand- Stand for something, or stand for nothing!“
- Barstools is not going to change with Penn Entertainment’s buyout. The employees making moves to other cities like Chicago will help grow the brand, “It will just be more content.”
- Portnoy’s dream in life is to “learn how to scuba dive.”
And the answer everyone wants to know … who will win the big game this Sunday? “Super Bowl right now, I am leaning Chiefs, but it’s a fluid situation.”
Special thanks to the Barstool family for embracing FACTZ.
