Well, let’s go back to last March, when the Dapper Don was in town from South Florida to celebrate his birthday with some of his boyhood friends. He made a stop at the mob's new clubhouse at 11th and Jackson. Then, later that night, Merlino and 12 of his friends headed for the black jack tables in the SugarHouse casino. All, sources say, caught on tape by the casino's surveillance cameras.

"We'll see what they do now that they have a video of him physically being in there," Anastasia noted.

Court documents obtained by Fox 29 say Merlino and his pals were at the Black Jack tables, when a disagreement lead to some words between the Merlino entourage and several others at the table. Things got heated, there was some shoving and three punches thrown before casino security was called to break it up.

The documents say, "The large group of males, including Mr. Merlino reportedly threatened the other group and threatened that they would wait outside for them. “

"’If you ask him about this situation, currently he'd say ‘Look, we were out socializing, partying, we went to the casino. What's the big deal I wasn't banned? I was allowed in there.’ And he's right," according to Anastasia.

At some point, Merlino shook hands with one of the combatants, and his entourage left the casino.

The stories just keep on coming with this family. lol
