Video
)
Jaws hit the floor at a New Jersey gym last month as Sherein Abdelhady effortlessly pulled 425 pounds right off of it.

: Barstool's Portnoy Surprises Struggling PA Restaurateurs In Emotional FaceTime Call

Barstool CEO Portnoy Wowed By Pizza From Lido Restaurant In Hackensack
Barstool Sports CEO Dave Portnoy made himself clear: He loves bar pizza. And Hackensack's Lido Restaurant gave him just that. The sports internet mogul stopped by the ever-popular Main Street joint this week for another installment of his "One Bite" pizza review series. "I love it in there," said Portnoy, standing outside of the old-time restaurant. "It's straight out of the 1930s. You've got the old people sitting around, bar-style. I hope it's going to be bar pizza... it has to be, right?." Lido opened in 1956. The restaurant briefly closed in 2018 for renovations, but reopened weeks la…

A 25-year-old Monmouth County hiker has been dubbed the "Calm Queen" by internet users after a video of her slowly walking away from a black bear on a Sussex County hiking trail went viral.

: Barstool Sports CEO Portnoy Gives East Rutherford's New Park Tavern 'Fair' Review
Barstool Sports CEO Dave Portnoy is back in Bergen County. Less than one week after visiting Kinchley's Tavern in Ramsey -- where he said the pie was not crispy enough -- the sports blogger visited New Park Tavern in East Rutherford for his "One Bite" pizza review series.

"I can work with this," Portnoy said in front of a crowd that had gathered outside. "You can hear the crunch all the way to Nebraska. "It has the …
