Tootsie . [ [http://www.hurleymountaininn.com/home.html Official Website] ] At one time, the Hurley Mountain Inn was famous for its rough and tumble biker bar scene, but then a NY State Trooper barracks was sited directly across the street and the bar settled into a tame flag-festooned family place, though crazy thong-barings continued during its famous New Years celebrations. They claim to have the largestSt. Patrick's Day celebration in New York - "latest figure, we served over 12,000 pounds of Mosey's corned beef in just 6 days! (Not to mention Auto lb|5000|-2. of cabbage, Auto lb|4500|-1. of potatoes and 4,000 lb of carrots!)."
