    I am Cuban- my wonderful, brave Uncle fought in the Bay of Pigs, was captured and held in a Cuban prison for over 2 years. When he came to the US, he became a very proud American, joined the Navy and was an expert “Frog Man”. Despite his age (he was well into his 40’s when he fought at TBOP)- the soldiers referred to him as “Papa”- I was also a very close relative to a very famous Cuban- Second cousin by marriage- so many stories but nothing like Joey’s accounts! He has everyone beat!

    Man you guys bring back memories...I grew up in East Harlem, the Puerto Ricans controlled the numbers probably with the Cubans for all I know. I ran a few errands for the top guy in the mornings! That man laced me up!
    And... The lottery is shit. You pay most of it to taxes. With the numbers you get paid out what you were told what you were paid out. I miss those days...I will always tell people: I knew guys with no formal education who had photographic memories, never wrote a number down (proof if the cops shook you!) and these guys spoke Spanglish lol... Smart as smart can be! Never a day in school.

    10:54 Holy shit. As a partial Cuban (Mom is from Cuba), this is the most true thing I've heard. "Cubans desire revenge". I've always had thoughts about revenges and plotted _a lot_ of revenges. Shit, I even think about doing revenges to people who did shit to me YEARS ago. People always tell me "Let it go, that's history" or some shit, but it only makes me want the revenge even more. I hate when people think they get away with shit.
    I've always had these weird, deep, aggressive feelings, but never knew why, and thought I was crazy sometimes. I guess it's part of the Cuban culture.

    i never met Jose Miguel. I was partners with his brother Adolfo. I started the gambling machine business in NYC. I started Washington Hts with a Porteno (Argentina) el Che or Narizon, Roberto Chitti. We put slot machines in the Cuban number holes. Chitti overplayed his hand and opened up a few of his own number joints. Big Mike (Jose Miguel) didnt like that. He scared the hell out of Roberto. So much that Chitti was on a plane to Buenos Aires first flight going home, one way ticket. I was partners with a whole group of Cuban Number guys. i met with Jose Miguel's son. I tried to help Jose Miguel find refuge in South America. A member of our extended family from Argentina, an influential lawyer, made contact for him in both Paraguay and Bolivia. I can tell a few hours of Cuban stories going back to my father's time, when my father invested in the Riviera and sold out six months before the revolution

    Growing up in Cuban Miami, on SW 5TH ST & 5TH AVE, in the 1970s I was very familiar with the highly illegal Puerto Rican lottery. Those little white tickets with some colorful bright lettering. Pretty much any Cuban played that shit. In 1980 I went on a cruise with family that took us to San Juan. I remember we took a taxi and when we had to stop for a red light, saw this old gentleman carrying a huge white roll that I swear was bigger than him. Saw what was printed and it was the Puerto Rican lotto tickets. He was selling lotto tickets on the street! LOL

    My father and Battle were friends when he moved to Miami from Jersey.They were both into Rooster fights and at one of the fights some Cuban rafters dressed up as cops robbed everyone at the fight and when it came to Battle he told them to take everything but his Gold necklace and of course they didn’t listen.They were found and killed .Also his right hand man el tieso or the stiff befriended my mother in law while on walks and it turned out that Battle lived four houses down from her.This was a few years before he was arrested and died in prison.

      Rafaelalvarez923 Fascinating! Tell me, did you read TJ English’s book “The Corporation”? And if you did, did you agree with the history as he wrote it? The reason I ask: I notice some of the negative reviews of it on Amazon come from people who lived with and were around Battle when he was around, and they’re saying the book’s bogus. I wondered what you thought of it.
