Brooklyn center turns to Boca for its 'Brooklyn' bagels and water

A major Brooklyn sports and entertainment venue has found the essence of Brooklyn bagels and tap water — in Boca Raton.
New York's famed bagel shops may be miffed, but Barclays Center has chosen Boca Raton's Original Brooklyn Water Bagel Company as its bagel vendor.
...Its operation at Barclays Center will take Brooklyn's New York City tap water and turn it into — Jerry Seinfeld couldn't make this up — Brooklynized water.
"They're going to turn it into better Brooklyn water," said company attorney Robert Mayer. "It's only going to have the good stuff."
Be sure to watch the video to hear real ex-New Yorkers sing the praises of their Florida Brooklyn bagels.
