I just discovered this page . After seeing you elsewhere. I'm a Army Veteran in recovery Fellas like you take away my shame of being a recovering Addict thank you.
Hey Andy huge fan. I grew up in Franklin square Long Island but now I live in Howard beach. I work in the ironworkers union and take the A train to the city.and I park my car at the Boyd ave station . I’ve been following your channel since you first started it and have been a fan of yours since I saw your interview on Vlad tv. Never realized this small glass shop where I park in front of or across the street from before I walk up to the train everyday until I told my aunt who grew up in Ozone park where I get on the train and she told me that glass shop is where cafe liberty used to be. Love your stories and walking thru the streets u guys were making history and doing all kinds of wild shit in makes the content and the stories all the more interesting
Hey Ant I can truly appreciate your words and the dedication and love you had for your father. These aren’t stories my friend, they are life experiences you are sharing that are priceless. We grew up in the best of times and our past has shaped us good/bad/indifferent. Subscribed and look forward to more Cent’Anni
I could walk to Aqueduct race track from my house and often did. My favorite song at the track had the lyrics, "I need a drink and a quick decision" by Hall and Oates. She's Gone was the song. Two of my friends were horse trainers and One was a jockey. I stopped gambling before I stopped drugs bc I knew gambling would kill me b4 drugs.
Watched IN FULL! I too, enjoy putting a little money in a pot over sports..mostly baseball and hockey…Mr. Alite seems to be a great fella as yourself…my mom and dad would have, AND still, stomped a new mud hole in me for a tatto, even me at 48yrs old! That’s the respect and love for my parents…you were right when you responded to my earlier comment, this is indeed, a great video! Thank you for sharing your experiences from your past with us sir!
Anthony you are so right the Detroit coach was a moron in that game. The championship game is not the same as a regular season game. I was yelling at the tv.
Hi Anthony i did place a $100 bet at Hard Rock Tampa, used the New Sports Betting Kiosks... all legal now go figure. Hope to see You & Pasquale soon regards. Mariano
holy collagen, Batman. No wrinkles! I am so jealous. Men are so lucky. They do not wrinkle early and they shower, shave, put their fingers through the hair and out the door. I was in Daytona in August. Talk about needing ice water . . . LOL Life is so unfair! Best regards, your fan from NJ (Wendy)
Anthony I got pinched on a bookmaking charge in Dec 1995 on championship Sunday during the 49’er/cowboy game.They kicked the door down in our office.We knew they were coming so kept switching spots but they caught up with us.That DA Charles Hynes was pinching all the shops in the city.
anthony i commend you and your podcast ! your doing great ! im from brooklyn last name is Palermo .. i got a question for ya .. could you do something on Frankie Dap ? i knew him back in the day when i was a kid my father worked very close with him at consolidated bus company .. im sure you know all about that dobacle ;-) anyways frankie was a good guy he always was great with me but i always wondered who he was with who was his captain before he became a capo and what else can you tell me about him ? my father told me he was a true old timer /cosa nostra to the bone ! anyways i was just wondering
I agree 100% about going with the over on this upcoming Super Bowl, given that both of these teams are really very good, though the Chiefs have the edge with a future hall of fame quarterback who has been there already. Also, should it come down to the kicking game, the Chiefs' kicker is also a proven commodity. When I bet on the Super Bowl, I usually wait until the day before the game in case of injuries that may crop up in practice, illnesses, or if one of the key players does something stupid and gets arrested, which serves as an unwanted distraction for the team. While something like this can happen anywhere, the fact that the game is in Las Vegas this year makes this more of a possibility to consider than usual.
Hi Mr Ruggiano, firstly of I really enjoyed the video very interesting & really enjoyed it. But I have a question do you know anything about Cesare Bonventre ? The reason I ask my mom dated his son for like 5yrs she said he was a jerk but his mother was very kind 'but his mother did say to my mom that his attitude comes from his father .& they flew to Sicily on 3 occasions to see his family , I think golf something, I've travelled all over the world. But only go to Italy for fashion. But can & if you do know something about him can you maybe do a video on him ? I'm Cuban so I've heard lots stories passed down from my great grandfather to my grandfather about Batista & was was happening in Cuba . I know this was before you're time..❤
keep up the good work. can’t believe ur 70 bro ! 49ers are owned by an Italian Family from youngstown for over 50 years. The Federal Government basically forced the old owner to give up control and hand it over to his sister.. That’s why the Niners started sucking in the mid 90s! Anyways keep up the good work just went from 235-200 pounds getting down tk 170 soon i wanna look like u at age 70
Hey Anthony I sent you an email about needing help with addiction very badly for my fiancee and I… if there’s anything you can do for me please, we’re at a point where we can’t save ourselves.. and desperately need help.
You’re right athletes today are soft! My dad would tell back in the day when the Braves were still in Boston, he said Bob Feller would pitch both games of a double header! My dad is still a braves fan till this day!
Keep doing your thing bro. All the other channels are going to eat themselves alive going after each other. They don’t realize the viewer “me” is only interested in the stories told and not the drama that surfaces from a bunch of swinging short dicks with long ego’s. But Bro, I really hope you aren’t hurt by any of the troll comments. I remember the other day I watched you reading off the comments and one of the comments called you a clown and you choked up a little on that. Not that it matters but I hope you realize you’re good and your channel is good. And you have heart which matters. You’re not the typical ozone park/woodhaven guy like that John Pennissi who’s secretive and always alluding to shit that’s an inside joke between him/and all the ghost he sees…. Thankfully you redeem us people from Queens because the other guys are just embarrassing.
Hey Andy..you ever thought about doing merch with a outline of your dad...like the Hitchcock silhouette...but with a low brim hat and a cigar with smoke? Just an idea, am a graphic designer and sell more images and logos over merch with words
Hey Andy I might be going crazy but did you say that you lived in Detroit for a couple years? I can't remember what video off the top of my head but you mentioned that Detroit is a great city for sports and has great sports fans!
I like this show. Of all the gangsters that do this he sees the most honest .The bull and Franchese stories change all the time. Especially Gravano who waited until All of them were dead to tell his stories…
I tune in to hear your amazing stories but i had to skip around in order to find out when you start talking about the actual title. I'm not knocking you but again I say I tune in to hear your stories not about football.

Fellas like you take away my shame of being a recovering Addict thank you.
No shame in doing what’s right. Great job. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you if you could take the time out of your day. To respond to me that's cool thanks
Could listen to Anthony all day long, his knowledge and behind the scenes info is like nothing else

I tune in to hear your amazing stories but i had to skip around in order to find out when you start talking about the actual title. I'm not knocking you but again I say I tune in to hear your stories not about football.
Fat Andy bet against New York that was the story about the jets
