Pete Wentz' bar closed for allegedly serving minors

Contributed by an Anonymous Source. Posted by aubin on Monday, June 1, 2009 at 5:30 PM (EDT)

According to a Gawker report, Pete Wentz of Fall Out Boy has been forced to close his New York City bar, Angels and Kings.

The celebrity site reports that the venue was issued a third citation for serving to minors, so they've been shut down for three days. Check out the rather sarcastic report from Gawker here.

Serious, from the title I assumed it was closing for good, this is not news.

i've been there a lot, my friend djs there tuesday nights, so a lot of our friends go pretty regularly to support her. the bars sucks, a lot. but it's not the bartenders fault, they have a doorman.

however there are tons of underaged kids there who get in with fakes. once they are in, they have already been carded, the bartender should be able to serve freely.

That's like opening up a Hannah Montana themed bar, of course minors are gonna be the only ones there.

It really wasn't a problem until Pete agreed to go to prom with that girl.

glad someone caught on

Dante3000 (rich) (June 1, 2009)

Well, didn't Wentz say he was opening the bar to serve the outcasts and under represented? Who's more under represented at the bar scene than the underage?

JimmyNorville (June 1, 2009)

no, his bar is getting really, really closed to serving minors... it is like a barely legal thing. Basically, it started out serving old people and is now down to serving people who are celebrating their 21st birthday.

Who DIDN'T see this coming is the real question here.

the gawker / pete wentz internet battle that happened with the gawker stalker thing is hilarious. the pie chart is aces. internet paparazzi, i don't know if there's much worse on the planet, but i'd assume fall out boy's music is right up there.

pie chart is indeed great. Favorite part: 'Misspelled Went's or Ashly's name', followed by people thinking it was Wentz, asking where they were playing next. Ahh.... snark.

scorpiondeathlock (June 1, 2009)

people over 21 dont hang out in pete wentz bar

martinNZ09 (June 1, 2009)

ChadReligion (June 1, 2009)

He should just open a 18 and up club, so he can have the popscene of New York

LookingForCorpses (June 1, 2009)

Talk about a non-story. Bar has license suspended for 3 days. Shit happens all the time. Also, isn't Wentz one of like 6 or 8 owners?
