Trapped on a Rooftop

2006_07_theeagle.JPGWell, if you're going to get so drunk that you pass out and then wake up and find yourself locked in the bar, we suppose it makes sense you do it at a bar named a place "to be on your worst behavior" by Citysearch. According to the Daily News, Louis Rosano passed out Monday night on the rooftop of The Eagle, a bar at 554 West 28th Street in Chelsea, and didn't wake up until 1PM yesterday. It was only when a Chelsea parking attendant heard Rosano's calls that the NYPD rescued him by cutting a hole through the fence. Rosano admitted he probably had a good night, but added, "You know they're supposed to check the club at closing. Well, the idiots didn't." Gothamist thinks Rosano might have been lucky to be locked in - clublandin the West 20s has been pretty dangerous lately.

So this drunken mess of a man, er I mean boy blames the club? Yes clubs/bars/pubs/lounges/restaurants/dept stores etc are supposed to check to see if all patrons are gone, but it's not law.
Where was his cellphone?

Louis Rosano, my friends, is New York City's IDIOT of the week.
