Mets Fans Set World Crocheting Record
Over 400 fans at Citi Field set the Guinness World Record for most people crocheting in one place yesterday, hooking together blue and orange yarn in honor of the Mets. National NeedleArts Association co-chair Lily Chin told the Daily News, "I thought this was a great team effort, because baseball is a team sport. I thought it was brilliant."
At the 4th annual "Stitch 'n' Pitch" event, 427 people crocheted for 15 minutes straight, setting a new world record. Unfortunately, the Guinness World Records website couldn't tell us what the previous record had been, or if any previous gathering had even warranted a record.

Philly Favorite Rita’s Water Ice Comes to Manhattan -- Grub Street New York

Last year, Grub Street Philadelphia reported that 25-year-old Rita’s Water Ice was aiming to open 600 stores by the end of 2009, so it’s no surprise that according to QSR Web, the company will open three locations in Manhattan. The first will open February 14, when all visitors between the hours of 11 a.m. and 11 p.m. will get a free regular-size Italian ice (the first 100 customers will get a year’s supply). Rita’s traditionally does these giveaways on the first day of spring (according to Wikipedia, 1.2 million cups were distributed last year in a ten-hour period). In addition to Italian ices made on site, Rita’s serves frozen custard, “gelati” (actually a combination of ice and frozen custard), and blended custard-and-water-ice drinks. QSR Web doesn’t give an address for the first location, but a Rita’s Facebook page reveals it’s at 2486 Broadway near 92nd Street."

Pizzeria Uno Filing for Bankruptcy - Gothamist
Are you going to be ok?
Pizzeria Uno Filing for Bankruptcy - Gothamist: "Pizzeria Uno Filing for Bankruptcy
012010uno.jpg Great, first that place The Smith came along and knocked Pizzeria Uno out of the East Village, then the one on Sixth Ave and 8th Street closed last week. Now the whole goddamn plane has crashed into the mountain: Uno Restaurant Holdings Corp. is filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Last week Uno closed 16 'under-performing' restaurants, but the company's marketing guy swears the bankruptcy filing is a good thing, because its restructuring will eliminate a 'burdensome' debt load. You know what else is burdensome? Food snobs' condescending attitude toward Uno's mouth-watering deep dish delicacies. Just because it's a sinister corporate chain doesn't mean it can't be deliciously evil. Go show you're support at one of their remaining NYC locations today!"
