Dave Portnoy Takes Back Offer of Auschwitz Trip in Anti-Semitic Sign Controversy
Briefly

Dave Portnoy, founder of Barstool Sports, faced backlash after a sign stating 'Fuck the Jews' appeared at one of his bars in Philadelphia. Originally proposing to send the responsible individuals on an educational trip to Auschwitz, Portnoy's plans changed when one individual, identified as Temple University student Mohammed Mo Khan, denied any involvement. Portnoy had spoken to both involved parties who initially took responsibility, but upon seeing Khan's new claims of being a 'citizen journalist,' he rescinded the trip offer, expressing disappointment over the situation's reversal.
Portnoy publicly condemned the anti-Semitic message displayed at his bar and initially proposed sending the individuals responsible on an educational trip to Auschwitz.
Following a retraction from one of the individuals involved claiming to only be a journalist, Portnoy rescinded his offer to educate them.
