Bill Murray Has a Bartending Gig in Brooklyn This Weekend

Want to get drunk with Bill Murray? Of course you do. And he also wants to get drunk with you, or at least help you get there.

This weekend, the former Ghostbuster is going to make pop culture dreams come true for the patrons of his son Homer's restaurant, Eater reports. Homer Murray is re-launching his former Brooklyn restaurant River Styx with the new, less satanic name 21 Greenpoint, referring to the Brooklyn restaurant's address, and a menu with more local food and revamped drinks.

And guess who'll be serving those drinks? That's right—ol' Carl Spackler himself has been booked as bartender for Friday and Saturday's festivities.

Odds are, though, Bill Murray won't be serving any of 21 Greenpoint's new upscale cocktails. Based on Murray's past appearances as a bartender—like the time he showed up at Austin's Shangri-La with RZA and GZA and served only tequila—he'll probably be making whatever he feels like. In other words, he'll probably be serving lots of tequila shots. "Everything I know about throwing a party, I learned from my dad. I hope everyone likes tequila," Homer Murray told MUNCHIES.

Murray has gone from Saturday Night Live star to Ghostbuster to serious dramatic actor to Oscar-losing curmudgeon. But nowadays, his most well-known recurring role is as a bartending, French fry-stealing, karaoke-singing, bachelor party-crashing performance artist.

While the re-launch party was initially supposed to be open to the public, a 21 Greenpoint rep issued a statement saying, "For overall capacity reasons, this is not an open door event, there will be a guest list." But for for the lucky few who do get it into 21 Greenpoint this weekend, it's Suntory time!
