This is mafia related, my father told me about it.

Well, my father was close friends with this hard-hitting gangster in a high place, his friend came to him and asked for a favor. So, my dad went and roughed up this GUY who wouldn't pay for something the mob gave him. My dad made the GUY real scared so he shit his pants and paid up.

My dad was offered any job in Florida, he could have been the limo driver for Burt Reynolds(huge actor at the time)or anything. My dad said no to stay with his wife(my mom)in NYC.

I thought it was pretty cool.
