STEPHENTOWN, NY — The son of a former NF🅺L star whose upstate home was destroyed by teens in a break-in party was devastated to learn his boyhood pals took part in the debauchery.
“I know🎉 some of the kids that went to the party,” Brian Holloway Jr. told The Post yesterday as he helped his dad, former NFL player Brian Holloway Sr., clean up $20,000 worth of damage.
“They were c💙lassmates, childhood best friends, so it was shocking and disappointing,” he said.
Brian Jr., one of eight Holloway kids, went to Stephen𓂃town Elementary before mo♛ving to Florida. He attended Berlin HS when the family moved back upstate briefly before returning to the Sunshine State.
“I’d try to meet up with people whe🧸n I would come back as much as I could,” said Brian Jr., 18. “I considered them friends.”
Some of those same kids are now blasting him aftꦆer Brian’s dad posted their names and photos online as cops investigate the drug- and drink-fuele🌱d bash.
“People I know who were at the party contacted me, going on rants,” said Brian Jr., 🧜a student at the University of Southern Florida. “There were no apologies or explanations [for the vandalism].”
As The Post first reported yesterday, the parents of several of the revelers have threatened Brian Sr., a former New England Patriots offensive lineman, with lawsuits and physical haไrm for publicly 💎outing their brats.
The Holloways were home in Florida when🍃 kids smashed windows and broke into the house in the Ne🎐w York town about 25 miles southeast of Albany and near the Massachusetts border.
In no time, hordes of the 200 to 300 trespassers were posting photos and messa🍒ges on Twitter from inside the Holloway home.
“I have a handful of real friends here, an𝓰d one of them contacted me and said, ‘Is this your house?!’ ” he rec𝓀alled.
“I said, ‘Oh my God, who’s that on the table?’ I watched thꦍe party unravel on Twitter.”
The bash left 10 shatt🌺ered windows, urine-ꦍsoaked carpets, gouged oak floors and walls covered in graffiti and holes.
“There were a bunch of underage kids here drinking and doing drugs and that needs to be addressed as a s⛦ociety,” said Rensselaer County Sheriff’s Sgt. Shane Holcomb.
As for the parents 💃angry at Holloway, Holcomb said:
“What parents are most upset about is the fallout on social med⛄ia. The kids are being threaওtened via Twitter and on Facebook. As a parent, I say, get them off Twitter, off of Facebook. Send them to their room with a book, not their phones.”
