Equinox Wishes Its Members a Happy "Go Play Outside" Independence Day
We recently took the torches to Equinox, the upscale fitness club that costs about 20 percent of your apartment rent, for kicking members out of their New York facilities so staffers could attend a company picnic last month. And while it turned out that the closure didn't affect us, which made us pretty much stop caring about the matter, the bad taste in our mouth returned when this notice appeared in our inbox:
Why get upset about gym celebrating America's independence? Because four days prior, they sent this:
Happy July 4th indeed.

Big Deal. Most gyms modify their hours for holidays. Hell even grocery stores do it. Paying an expensive memberhip doesn;t mean you actually own and run the place. It's a weekend. Get over it.
Equinox has always been superlame, and the steamrooms at the westside Y have always been better. Let 'em close.
