The Barstool Sports CEO has been sampling pies from pizzerias in West Hartford, including Zephyr's Street Pizza on Farmington Avenue, owned by Dante and Stephanie Cistulli. Cistulli was in the shop when Portnoy dropped by, and became emotional, saying his visit couldn't have come at a better time.

Giants QB Tommy DeVito's Agent ‘Italian Jerry Maguire’ Is A Mass Sports Legend
The football world got its first taste of New York Giants Quarterback Tommy DeVito's agent on Monday night, but Massachusetts residents and many college football fans in New York already knew him. Sean P. Stellato made a splash Monday night, Dec. 11, when a video of him and DeVito went viral on X, formerly Twitter, with even Barstool Sports Owner David Portnoy shouting him out.
