This is sad. Cmon, can't Cheers fans pony up? Woody Harrelson can fight for hemp clothing but not this dude's job?
Eddie Doyle, the Boston bartender who became famous as the inspiration for Ted Danson's Sam Malone character on "Cheers," has lost his job - laid off because of the moribund economy.
"Things are tough," said Doyle, 66, who started work at the Bull & Finch Pub nearly 40 years ago.
The pub became known as the "Cheers" bar after the comedy became a hit on NBC in the 1980s.

saw this too. BUT I kind of think a "moribund economy" makes people drink more, amirite? St Patty's month or not.
Yeah, beer sales are up. But maybe people are buying in stores and drinking at home...?
