“I think Philadelphians love their athletes, but they want the athletes to love us back and to number one, work their tail off and hustle, give all they have and this guy didn’t. He didn’t understand our city,” Stateside Director of Operations Eddy McGehean told CBS Philly.

The jersey will be donated to a shelter in Brooklyn. Stateside Vodka is accepting Simmons jerseys until Feb. 28. You can drop off your jersey anytime it’s open, 5 to 10 p.m. Thursday, 5 p.m. to midnight Friday, or noon to midnight Saturday.

Stateside Vodka is located on North Hancock Street in Kensington.

Waste away with five simple ingredients: Tequila, Cointreau, lime juice, ice and kosher salt. Don't waste your time with sour mix.


Negroni

The Negroni is equal parts London dry gin, Campari and vermouth rosso, and it's equal parts satisfying and refreshing.


Pina Colada

Rum, pineapple juice, coconut cream and ice all blended together, the Pina Colada is an island paradise in a glass, regardless of whether or not you enjoy getting caught in the rain.

You could serve this tropical delight in a tiki-style glass, but a standard large Collins glass is just as fun with this dark rum-based cocktail.


Paloma

The Paloma has had a bit of a resurgence, and it's understandable why. Tequila, lime juice, and grapefruit soda on the rocks? What's not to love?


Hurricane

Saving the sweetest for last. A Hurricane is like dessert in a glass! Created in New Orleans, this dark rum, passion fruit syrup and lemon juice cocktail is traditionally garnished with an orange slice and a maraschino cherry. Laissez le bon temps rouler, indeed!
