Mets vs Yankees Weekend at Vivid Cabaret New York

Baseball fans call it the Subway Series—the New York Mets will play the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, May 16, 17 and 18. 

Vivid Cabaret New York, the high-energy adult club known for its sexy girls and party atmosphere, will host viewing and “decidedly unofficial” After-Parties for both games at the tri-level club in midtown Manhattan (61 West 37 Street).

Baseball fans will be greeted by the beautiful Vivid girls who perform on the city’s tallest stripper pole (28 feet) and also up close and personal.

Shaquille O’Neal Joining Son’s College Hoops Program As General Manager

Basketball Hall of Famer Shaquille O’Neal has accepted the men’s basketball general manager role at Sacramento State.

O’Neal will be joining in a voluntary role with the program, where his son, Shaqir, recently transferred from Florida A&M following the hiring of former NBA point guard Mike Bibby as head coach.

O’Neal is the latest high-profile athlete to take on a college general manager position following Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry, who was named as an assistant general manager at his alma mater, Davidson.

Sacramento State went 7-25 under interim head coach Michael Czepol during the 2024-25 season following a combined 28-42 record under former head coach David Patrick, who took the associate head coach position at LSU last year.

The Hornets have never made an NCAA Tournament appearance since being promoted to Division I during the 1991-92 season and have only finished with a winning record twice in that span.

Sovereignty Edges Out Journalism in 151st Kentucky Derby

It may not have been as close as last year’s photo finish Kentucky Derby, but the 151st running on Saturday evening still produced plenty of drama down the stretch. Sovereignty was able to edge out the favorite, Journalism, to take the first leg of the Triple Crown. 

It ends up being the second derby win for trainer Bill Mott, who also won the 2019 Derby with Country House.

Conditions were extremely muddy and sloppy due to heavy rains throughout the day at Churchill Downs, severely impacting the conditions. But for as sloppy as the conditions were, they did not slow down Sovereignty as it was able to power through with a frantic finish.

Sovereignty entered the day with 7-1 odds to win.

Journalism was the favorite at 3-1.
