Bronx Sub Shop/Strip Club Shut Down

SubwaystripclubPoor Anthony "Cousin Vinny" Angello. When the money from his New York strip club wasn't enough, he tried to run a Subway. When the Subway gave him the boot for not paying his rent, he decided to open his own sub shop, using Subway wrappers, menus, and bags. He was promptly sued by the Subway chain. The kicker? "Cousin Vinny's" was also a part-time strip club.

In a now-infamous flier, he wrote, "During the day, it is an extraordinary 'Subway-style submarine sandwich shop' offering the highest-quality meats. At 10 p.m. Wednesday through Saturday, this seemingly harmless sub shop becomes the wildly exotic and explicit, all-nude private club 'Cousin Vinny's Little Secret.' "

Nice! He has something there, too bad a huge company like Subway didn't like to be associated with a strip club.
