Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that A man walked into Fanelli Cafe in soho dressed as a nazi.
A man in a Nazi uniform was intimidated into leaving a Soho bar as patrons shamed and threatened him.
The incident was captured on a video posted to Twitter Saturday night, as costumed Halloween revelers imbibed across the boroughs.
In the clip, the smiling young man, donning full regalia including a swastika armband, sidled up to the bar at Fanelli Cafe, leaving other patrons aghast.
“What is wrong with you?,” one woman demanded.
The would-be customer shrugged as he appeared to be denied service and exchanged words with a customer that told him to leave in vulgar terms.
“F–k you mate,” the offensively costumed man retorted.
“You want to get f—ed up? [Leave] for your own safety,” the woman implored as a man walked up to the unwanted patron and pointed to the door, prompting him to exit.
“Perfect response from the people in the bar though,” one viewer wrote.
“Shocked no one punched his smirking face,” another said.
“Honestly is so disgusting to still see stuff like this in 2022. People seem to think it was a long time, when in fact I’m only the 2nd generation after the Holocaust,” one woman replied.
The antisemitic comment prompted a joint response from the team’s who had played earlier in the day.
‘The University of Florida and the University of Georgia together condemn these and all acts of antisemitism and other forms of hatred and intolerance,’ the teams said.
‘We are proud to be home to strong and thriving Jewish communities at UGA and UF, and we stand together against hate.’
The message of hate also prompted a response from the Southeastern Conference, which the teams play in.
The unknown man chuckled and shrugged when people in Fanelli Cafe asked ‘what’s wrong with you?’
As the man stands at the bar, ostensibly to order a drink, one can see a woman covering her face in horror while another man next to her watches him.
Another woman can be heard asking the man loudly, “What’s the matter with you?”
Other customers come in and tell him ‘get out of here’ and ‘what the hell was that?’
The man wearing the Nazi costume smiles and shrugs as customers continue to confront him about his choice of clothing.
‘F**k you mate’, the man responds at one point in the video.
‘Want to be pampered? [Leave] for your own safety,” says one person as the man lingers by the doors of the bar.
One patron was so upset by the incident that he got up from his table a few feet away from the man, pointed to the exit and led him outside.
