… and another thing

Toasted ravioli for Brooklyn Lager

October

It didn’t take long for the bet to be placed.

New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg and St. Louis Mayor Francis G. Slay have a wager on the National League championship series between the New York Mets and the St. Louis Cardinals.

Here’s what’s at stake: If the Cardinals win, Bloomberg will send Italian subs from Leo’s Latticini and Mama’s of Corona, ice cream from Eddie’s Sweet Shop in Forest Hills, a pizza alla vodka and the Smokin’ Goodfella pizza from Goodfella’s Pizzeria on Staten Island, a case of Brooklyn Lager, and a tub of lemon ice from the Lemon Ice King in Corona.

And if the Mets win? Slay will send a care package of St. Louis products, including two Imo’s thin-style pizzas, a gift basket from Bissinger’s Chocolate and toasted ravioli from the Pasta House Company.

The series starts tonight at Shea.
