Sopranos 4 Sale
People are still airing their thoughts on The Sopranos finale - NYMag is personally feeling a bit betrayed by David Chase, and The Observer is left needing therapy, not closure. We're more interested in what's left of the show...in other words: The Sopranos are having a yard sale (thanks for the tip, Logo)! The sale is listed on Craiglist (it doesn't specify it's for The Sopranos, but it is), and states there will be "plenty of furniture, lamps, rugs, antiques, books, kitchen and bathroom accesories etc. - a warehouse full of everything you can think of."
We hope the "etc" stands for the jukebox that plays Journey songs, sweet velour tracksuits and Paulie Walnuts' tanning supplies. From experience with other prop sales everything gets picked over, and the good stuff will likely go fast (so go the first day). They also sell everything, so check the kitchen canisters and bathroom containers for cookies and Q-tips (and FBI bugs).
Rummage through the Family's things starting tomorrow (and through June 25th - though who knows, the warehouse may fade to black for an abrupt ending) at 44th Road between 21st Street and 23rd Street, across from 21-36 44th Road (just across the 59th Street Bridge) in LIC. 10am to 3pm. Bring cash!

The final scene was shot in a real diner in NJ, so chances are that you won't find any jukeboxes at this sale.
That diner (Holsten's, it's also not really a diner), doesn't have jukeboxes in real life. They were added for the show.
I emailed my mom a link to this story and she replied,
"Maybe I'll get a stripper pole from the Bing!"
Mom, you so crazayy...
Ade and Carm's fake nail tips? With sequins and glittuh?
What's the closest subway stop?
closest subway is the E,V at 23rd Street- Ely Ave... just walk a block north then half a block west.
this should be fun!
has anyone stopped by yet? is it worth the trip?
There are some pics of what's available, here.
