Ahern off into sunset

Bye, bye Joe . . .


Whew! Fired Channel 2 boss Joe Ahern must be relieved he sold his string of polo horses housed in the paddock of his Barrington estate -- before he got put out to pasture Tuesday!

* * Clearing out: Sneed hears Ahern, who once described himself as a "poor boy from Philly," was spotted taking one thing out of his controversial and luxurious office suite with the marble bathroom at Channel 2's new Loop location: a glass sculpture of a horse.

* * Word is that Ahern, who was famous for wearing chic slippers to social events, signed a new three-year contract a year ago. So bet the ranch he has a two-year "non-compete" clause to deal with -- as well as a ton of cash to live on.
