i heard about finnerty's right after i became to new york. right away, people told me about this bar. >> it's pretty neat to hear people talking about the bar. they just walk in, they look around and you know, it's -- i know that it's a feeling that no other bar has the pleasure of giving to their patrons like we do here. and that's really been the joy of all of them and the reward. >> for more than five years, finnerty's has been a haven for those who love the bay area. it provides a friendly smile and an open seat to all who call themselves faithful. >> this bar couldn't be anywhere else. there's so many transplants from all over the country, it's a place where you can have a bar for every team and you need to because there's no point in

very proud of it. we put our hearts and souls into it. so much of this has been out of your hands, it's been luck, how much of it did you make happen and on top of that, you can say you built the setting, but how much of that is the success of the team and how much of that is our hard work.
