New York's Most Popular Bagel Shop Is Getting Threatened With Eviction For Having Too Many People Waiting In Line To Try Their Smoked Salmon Bagel

Listen, I know for most of you this probably doesn't matter unless you live in the shithole that is New York City like myself. But what keeps people around besides the fact that we have a long lease in the center of Manhattan is the food. You deal with most of the bullshit that goes on in this city because you know every morning, you can go get the best bagel you've ever had that a large majority of the country would yearn for. 

Of the bagels you can get in the city, and I'm no Portnoy, I and most people would tell you that Apollo is the spot to do it. Ignore the $15 price for that beautiful looking sandwich costs and it may be one of the better things you ever put into your mouth, Robbie Fox prime rib sandwich be damned. Pictures can't even do it justice:

My one gripe is that if you don't go early in the morning, you may be waiting 30+ minutes for a bagel, and if you go on a weekend, well good luck Charlie. Success seems to comes at a cost because their landlord isn't having anymore of this deliciousness. I'm no lawyer either, but can a landlord really evict you for being -too- successful? What did you expect when you let them sign that lease to sling those glorious bagels to millions of New Yorkers and tourists who see it on TikTok and immediately flock? And lines aren't really exclusive to Apollo considering any decent place you want to try is going to have people waiting outside the entire day to try it.

I don't think this is really that crazy of a take, but wouldn't neighboring tenants want business booming? Unless you're slinging an inferior bagel, virtually any other business you put there probably gains some benefit by the sheer fact that hundreds if not thousands of people are waiting every single day and at least some of those are probably going to trickle in to your store to see what goods you're cooking. 

If they end up getting evicted, maybe the next move is to do a popup at Barstool HQ and supply endless $15 bagels for the space to keep us fed. One can dream.
