Several New York restaurants are getting financial help thanks to the Barstool Fund, including one of the oldest bars in Syracuse's Armory Square.

Mulrooney's, the oldest bar in the historic district has been closed since March. Owner Joe Calipari got a call from Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy who created the Barstool Fund to help small businesses survive during the coronavirus pandemic. The campaign has raised more than $27 million to help restaurants and businesses around the country, including several in New York.

"We want to help," Portnoy told Calipari. "We want to make sure you guys are there through the pandemic, give you whatever you need until this things over."

Calipari will see the funds to help his bar survive the coronavirus pandemic within 72 hours. "Every month we'll check in to see what you need and go from there," said Portnoy.

"You guys are doing fantastic work," Calipari said.

Watch Portnoy surprise Calipari. Beware, the video has some coarse language.

Several other restaurants throughout New York state also received help, including the Eagle House in Buffalo, a famous stopping place since 1827. "You're the exact type of location, with all the lockdowns, I love Buffalon" Portnoy said. "It was an automatic and we're glad we could help."

She promised to pay it forward some day.

Holbrooks Backporch in Holbrook got a call too.

Durf's, a family run restaurant for over 40 years in Fairport, is getting help too.
