By West Side Rag
Earlier this month, West Side Rag put out the call for the best alternative new name for Absolute Bagels, which was recently renamed to 2788 Broadway.
You did not disappoint.
WSR received more than 350 comments with hundreds of name submission possibilities. Thank you to everyone who submitted their idea and who cast their votes in the comments.
Given the number of submission, we’ve decided to crown three winners.
Without further ado.
Our first winner is Jacob with Relative Bagels.
The submission received the most upvotes of any comment with 66 and is a great play on the old name.
Our second winner is Nicole with Absolutely Not Absolute Bagels.
And our third winner is Lee with Hole Foods. Importantly, not Whole Foods.
Honorable mentions include:
- Absolutely Bagels
- Bagel Schmagel
- Bloomingdale Bagels
- Definite Bagels
- Not Absolute Bagels
- Positively Bagels
- Resolute Bagels
- Strauss Park Bagels
- Ultimate Bagels
If you are one of the three winners, please look out for an email Wednesday morning from info@westsiderag.com to the address that you used to write the comment. WSR T-shirts and other swag are in your near future.
