If you are one of the people spreading the rumor that downtown dive bar extraordinaire the Turf is not long for this world, shush: The staff of Turf says it is not closing anytime soon.

In celebration, please enjoy this recent interview with Turf assistant manager Amadis Langi:

The people at the Turf just crack me up. They look like the meanest people on earth, but it's just their attitude. They say the nicest things.

Or go have a drink. The Turf is open right now.
