Every NJ Business Saved by The Bartstool Fund

    Dave Portnoy Barstool's Pizza Reviews

    When most think of Barstool Sports, they may picture raunchy podcasts, one bite pizza reviews, “smokeshows,” and viral videos of college students “sending it.” Though that may be the brand image they want to be known for, Barstool, led by founder Dave Portnoy, has fundraised nearly $30 million for small businesses that have been hit hard by the pandemic. Portnoy was inspired by his cameraman, Frankie Borrelli whose family owns Borrelli’s on Long Island. Every month of the pandemic the future of the small business continued to become bleaker so Portnoy decided to take matters into his own hands and create the Barstool Fund. More than 176 businesses have already been supported across the country, 13 of which are located right here in New Jersey. Fundraising continues as Barstool is still accepting applications from small business owners that are in need of help due to the impact of COVID.
