According to a biography written by Bob Collacello -who worked for Andy at Interview Magazine in it's early years- Warhol frequented a bar in NYC's West Village called "Urine".
Amongst other really fucked up/cool-ass things, Urine boasted a "tub that people would piss into"* which had a "stack of Tiffany teacups"* that "people would use to dip into and drink from the tub."*
It is this bar that is said to have influenced his "Urine and Piss" series of screen prints (Warhols preferred medium), some of which were actually inked with urine.
Another time, "Warhol superstar" and sometime chauffeur Gerard Malanga was taking Jackie Kennedy Onassis to meet Andy for dinner when he became dopesick.
Without her knowledge (and without the benefit of tinted windows) he brought her to Brooklyn's Bedford Stuyvesant neighborhood so that he could cop drugs.
Imagine the prim and proper sophisticate Jackie O, sitting in the backseat of a car in Bed-Stuy and cruising for heroin........
