I was among the couple of hundred people who attended a private party (complete with red carpet) Monday night to celebrate the grand opening of the newest Boston’s The Gourmet Pizza. The restaurant and sports bar sits on the site previously occupied by Mugsy’s Restaurant at the corner of Hooper Avenue and Fischer Boulevard in Toms River. Boston’s has both a restaurant area and sports bar, complete with flat screen TV’s…there’s even a TV in the bathroom. The ownership group opened their first Boston’s on Route 66 in Neptune more than a year ago and officially they open to the public today in Toms River. Boston’s provided food for the hospitality room at the WOBM Christmas Classic which was enjoyed by all.
With the holidays over we now enter what seems like the longest stretch of winter, one that could be made to feel a bit shorter if the Giants can repeat their post-season success of last year. The Super Bowl is on February 1st and if the Giants can reach the big game in Tampa it will be the kind of positive diversion we need from all the negative things going on around us.
For those Eagle fans looking for equal time….find it somewhere else. However if Philly does knock off “Big Blue” on Sunday it will then give me a team to root against for the remainder of the playoffs. Yeah I know…this sounds just like the Phillies and Mets in September which if I remember did not work out very well for my team.
Another milestone for Brick Township High School hockey coach Bob Auriemma. Last night’s 9-0 victory over Toms River East came in his
1000th game behind the Green Dragon’s bench. In his 43rd season, Auriemma’s record is an amazing 611-310-79 and he shows no signs of letting up and after seeing him last month it does not appear he’s aged. Auriemma has had plenty of thrills coaching hockey at Brick and this year’s team includes three of his grandsons…Matt Dornacker, Mike Auriemma and Patrick Kearns.
