Add The New York Post on Google Wild video shows a delivery man and a Barstool employee pummeling one another after a brawl broke out inside the company’s Manhattan headquarters on Monday.
Barstool founder and president Dave Portnoy posted the shocking clip to X and said that the delivery app courier attacked their security guard after he asked him to leave the office.
“We had a crazy scene today at Barstool World Hq,” Portnoy wrote. “An uber eats driver got in a fight with Gia in the hallway over her order. Our security guard Dan went into the hall to tell the guy to leave and he attacked him.”
Police confirmed they were called to the company’s Midtown office on Seventh Avenue around 2 p.m. after a verbal dispute turned physical with a 31-year-old man punching a 45-year-old man multiple times in the face.
A “person of interest” was taken into custody and an investigation is ongoing, the NYPD said. It’s unclear what led up to the violence.
Nailbiting footage posted by Portnoy shows the deranged delivery man knocking the security guard to the floor and dragging him on the ground.
The Uber Eats courier then gets on his knees and wails the guard in the face, video shows.
Three Barstool employees jump in to break up the fight and subdue the culprit, who continues to swing while they try to hold him back, according to the footage.
The staffers were able to pull the courier off the guard and then called 911.
The security guard was treated at the scene, cops said.
“Danny may need a few stiches [sic] and a couple beers,” Portnoy said about the guard. “All in all another day at the Stool.”
Portnoy also took the time to sarcastically thank Mayor Zohran Mamdani for the attack, whom he has said he’d “love to” run against in a mayoral election.
“Shoutout Mandami’s [sic] NYC,” Portnoy bitterly remarked in his post.
Uber said it has removed the delivery driver from its app.
“We are horrified by the conduct displayed. Violence is never tolerated, and we’ve removed the courier’s access to the Uber platform,” a company spokesperson told The Post in a statement. “We stand ready to assist police however we can.”
Barstool didn’t immediately return a request for comment.
