This right here, this is what America is really about. Not government handouts, but Americans reaching out and helping other Americans. Barstool Sports’ Dave Portnoy introduced ‘The Barstool Fund’ to help small businesses and it’s so awesome this editor had to break out some tissue.

We’re not crying, YOU’RE CRYING.

‘How do we expect these people to survive?’

‘And nobody seems to care in the government. No plan. No relief.’

They’re donating half a million dollars to small businesses… while the government sits around with a thumb up their as*es.

This is so damn cool.

This is the best about America – helping each other in need❤️??

You know who is setup to sell some shirts and you should partner with @stoolpresidente ? I would talk with @RealRLimbaugh and his website is already setup with tons of visitors ready to help with your cause.

We really need more if this. If we can't rely on the government, we need to rely on ourselves to help the community.

Which is really how it’s supposed to be.

Great idea. My High school son busted tables at Borrelli’s the last two summers . This past summer they converted part of parking lot for outdoor dining. They are trying !
