LI Rep. Garbarino proposes bet with Ohio Rep. Joyce on NBA Eastern Conference finals.
Rep. Andrew Garbarino@RepGarbarino

Hey @RepDaveJoyce , the New York Knicks are about to face off against the Cleveland Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference Finals, and I’ve got the Knicks taking the East. How about a wager? If the Knicks win, you send some Northeast Ohio favorites to Long Island. If the Cavs win, I’ll send over some Tate’s Bake Shop cookies and Blue Point Beer from Long Island. Go Knicks!
