In the immortal words of Ron Burgundy, "I love scotch. Scotchy scotch scotch. Here it goes down, down into my belly." It is fitting, then, that there is now a bar in NYC dedicated to Will Ferrell and the iconic comedian's famous characters, which continue to pervade the public consciousness.
Stay Classy New York, started by best friends Zach Neil and Brian Link, features a hilarious cocktail menu (named after famous one-liners like The Mugatu Mule, The F*cking Catalina Winer Mixer, and The Glass Case of Emotion), fan art depicting Ferrell's many onscreen characters, and items autographed by the man himself.
Located at 174 Rivington St. in New York City's Lower East Side, Stay Classy is currently open to the public as a preview and will have its official opening Oct. 25 — but here's a virtual tour of the joint if you're unable to see it in person.
