Atlantic City Wind Farm at Dusk


Atlantic City Wind Farm at Dusk, originally uploaded by ToneOne.

Atlantic City - the name alone conjures up a lot. From benders with Burt Sugar at Irish Pub before an Arturo Gatti fight, to the time my cousin hit a royal flush on a fully loaded video poker machine 5 minutes after stepping into the borgata (1000:1 pay-out - we promptly left directly after!). From 4:00am Crown Royal fueled craps sessions at the marina with Kenny, to Bondland constructing the AC of tomorrow. From Donald trump in penthouses, to crackheads and hookers on pacific ave, i've seen a lot down there.

That said, Atlantic City has one of the last free beaches in New Jersey and an avid surf scene with a yearly competition:


Just a two hour drive outside of the Holland Tunnel w/out traffic (it goes by even quicker if your drinking wine from the bodega out of paper cups in the back seat), AC can be a real debaucherious break from the city.

The best part about The Irish Pub is that it is conveniently called The Irish Pub.

Sarahspy: When your ready, i'm ready!!! The ironman-AC express leaves from the the southside of wburg.

tommy russ: very true, but i think the best part is that richard grieco works the bar, and im not talking '21 jump street' grieco but'if looks could kill" grieco....
