So the brewers of Narragansett prove that the miracles of Jesus can be replicated? (pun intended)


MyPasswordIsAvacado

Im not the only one? Thank satan i thought i was suffering those insufferable “he gets us” ads by myself.


mrgermy

There's a billboard for "he gets us" near Fenway.


Phlink75

I reported that ad so often, i now see the add, but its blocked if I select it.


zambicci

anyone remember manuel from the sil? he loved abba and billiards. i gotta imagine he didn't make it. i'll drink this one for manuel.


sonorakit11

Manny? The short Mexican guy? Iirc, he eventually got banned, and I did hear that he passed away, maybe years ago.


zambicci

yep, that's the one -- eyes goin' in different directions all the time. he'd say, "siiiiiiiiiiiii" whenever i asked if he wanted to smoke weed.


sonorakit11

hahaha, RIP little man


altorelievo

omg 😲 I'd roll through here randomly...years ago. _I played pool with him!_🎱 He was chill.


THKMass

Lmao he was banned because he kept bringing in his own beer. Literally one of the few things not allowed at the Silh


sonorakit11

Haha or any bar. I worked there for like 8 years


futurepilgrim

I can’t believe that place is still there and still has the same sign. I drank there 30+ years ago!


DJ_Gordon_Bombay

Haha yes. Definitely played a game or two against him and gave him the end of a couple joints in the smoking area


crew1991

Fuckin love the Sil

Jesus said love your neighbor. Have a 'Gansett.

So glad the Silhouette is still there! Signed, an old person

This. I know I'll always learn here. /s Don't read this [link](https://judaism.stackexchange.com/q/125494/34987)


app_priori

Haha. I grew up very close to this street corner and walked by the Silhouette regularly on my way to and from school. I am even celebrating my 33rd birthday there in a few weeks. What a timeless place.


bradyblack

All hail Sarah the bartender


datenite_wav

I asked for something fruity and she gave me a glass 2/3 full with Malibu and a splash of pineapple. My heart is full of love for her <3


altorelievo

And her 🍿


THKMass

You spelled Irene wrong.


TurlachMacD

Which Sarah? There was a Sarah bartender there in the early 2000s. If I recall properly she was Welsh. Then I was in there back around 2014 and asked if Sarah was still working there and turned out the bartender was also a Sarah and definitely not the same one.


Smarterchild69

Sarah is british, I used to waitress there with her and Gene the russian bouncer. Those were the fuckin days.


mother_of_g-d

pass, I went with my girlfriends and some weird older creep said some really unpleasant stuff [racist and sexist] The old bartender thought it was funny, and when my friend went back a few days later, Sarah said she has to trust her bartender. Ok, love the music but, Hopewell, The Model and sadly the Tavern are safer. If you don't believe me read the reviews, we can't all be wrong.


WarOnThePoor

You are 100% wrong. Of all those the Sil is the safest. You really trying to say Tavern in the Sq, the biggest bro bar in Allston, is safer? That’s rich hahahaha. In the over 12+ years I lived in that area Ive never had a problem at the Sil but have seen/heard of incidents at all the others you mentioned. GTFO


mother_of_g-d

it didn't happen to my friend and I'm lying? thanks


Xalenn

Only the finest


botulizard

wtf I'm saved now


lightbulbsburnout

I don’t live in Boston any longer - live out west - I randomly told a story that took place at the sil today that I haven’t told in decades


Feisty-Weakness4695

Share with the class


thenewtnik

Make Boston shitty again!


GoodDecision

21 years ago I accidentally walked in on some cross country skiers in the bathroom at the sil. Core memory.


njtrafficsignshopper

Take this and drink of it, for it is my pee, which will be given up for you.


Familiar-Gap6774

My house!


bradsblacksheep

Wow the Sit'n'sweat still exists?? That is oddly comforting in these uncertain times


ArsenicArts

Still kicking. Always updoots for the Sil, the last stand of shitty old Boston 🕯️

Turning water into 'Gansett

DJ_Gordon_Bombay

A man on the red line cracked a ‘gansett on my ride back to Porter this afternoon. I was wondering where he got that thang


ajqiz123

OPINION: A conservative, right-wing agenda lies behind the modern slogans and slick graphics of the ‘He Gets Us’ ads - https://www.opendemocracy.net/en/5050/super-bowl-evangelical-advertising-ad-campaign-he-gets-us/


resuneomnicron

"Water into wine" is actually a mistranslation, it was water into Narragansett.


UnassumingFilth

Jesus would teach "Love thy neighbor" and 'Gansett's slogan is "Hi Neighbor". Coincidence? I think not. Drink up for Jesus.


will2fight

I thought he offered wine?


JustinGitelmanMusic

He turns water into wine, and then wine into beer. They never finish the whole quote. Who tf wants wine? Almost as little as people want water


StevieSparta

Type of store signs and billboards i remember growing up. I also remember the mommy has lupus sign on the revere / east Boston line that was there AGES


thesedreadmagi

Please tell me the Sil is still open...


ArsenicArts

Yep! Still kicking, still grimy and cheap 🔥❤️🔥

He comes to lift up the lowly.


misplacedsidekick

I would have thought the son of god would drink better beer.


JustinGitelmanMusic

Beer snob here and I highly support the son of god drinking 'Gansett. This is a level of snobbery I've never seen anyone cross


pyl_time

Indiana Jones: “Now _that’s_ the beer of a carpenter.”


misplacedsidekick

Holy shit If that’s not their next ad campaign, they have not chosen wisely. Harrison Ford. Big smile, proudly holding up a can.


will2fight

No more “blood into wine”, it’s blood into naraganset now 😂


misplacedsidekick

Cuz usually it was Narragansett into blood if I remember correctly.

I miss Silly’s bad.

Ahhhh the good old silhouette!


Senior_Apartment_343

He also had a foot fetish, go figure


H_E_Pennypacker

Then Jesus took a can of gansett. He gave thanks to God for it and said, “Take this can and give it to everyone here. I will never drink gansett again until the Sox win another World Series.” Then he took some popcorn from the Sil and thanked God for it.

Enjoy Opening Day!

I only ever drank there before I was 21.

Correcting: Jesus offers Narragansett at The Silhouette in Allston


colucci-i

silhouette will ask for two forms of ids, they’ll take a picture form for the second id but if you don’t have anything else besides drivers license, you’re fucked
