He's a charismatic guy. It can't be any worse than literally any other reality show.

I respectfully disagree with charismatic. Fascinating to regular people like me, yes. I mean he seems to have no personality. I can't picture him tellling s joke or really doing anything other than coldly retelling events. I bet in real life he's just a boring broken down old sociopath. Jmho of course.

Charismatic- well, after he decided to inform, he was hidden in the FBI training facility at Quantico and seemed to get along well with all the FBI agents. We don't know how prison or his medical condition have affected him. I would watch just hoping he wouldn't have his daughter on the show.

I can't find him on inmate locator or arizona inmate locator. So Bronx do you have the release date ?

Re: Sammy "the bull" - 06/03/17 07:35 AM

if you put in a guy who flips in the fed inmate locator..it will say no one found. my opinion if he was out , a year ago this week, his daughter would be advertising it..sam will not be hiding..

Was he a real tough guy? Like he says in his book
Posted By: Moe_Tilden

Re: Sammy "the bull" - 06/03/17 04:12 PM

Well he threatened to bitch slap Louis DiBono at a sit-down with Paul Castellano and DiBono almost pissed himself.

He beat up Joe Colombo's kids in a movie theater.

He trained with Teddy Atlas.

He derived his nickname from beating up older kids who tried to steal his bike.

Who was in his crew? What killers are you talking about?
Posted By: Moe_Tilden

Re: Sammy "the bull" - 06/03/17 06:10 PM

Louis Milito, Michael DeBatt, Joseph D'Angelo etc.
Posted By: blueracing347

Re: Sammy "the bull" - 06/03/17 06:24 PM

He has Graves disease. It's not going to kill him. From what I've read and seen on documentaries, he seems like a genuine tough guy. He was training with Tyson's trainer for Christ's sake. If he couldn't kill you with his hands, he definitely knew how to use a gun.

Nicky 'Cowboy' Mormando and Old Man Paruta a.k.a. his own personal Luca Brasi.

EDIT: Also guys like Huck Carbonaro, Louie Vallario, Frankie Fabiano, Eddie Garafola, but I don't know if they were necessarily 'killers'.

hey bronx did sammy actually used to get young guys from his neighborhood to do dirt for him then promise them to straighten them out and then he would whack them on the sly so he can put distance between him and them

Re: Sammy "the bull" - 06/04/17 09:41 AM

Hello Bronx, Frankie Fappiano was DeCicco's cousin, wasn't he?
Posted By: bronx

Re: Sammy "the bull" - 06/04/17 12:55 PM

No Tiger, no with that intention,but guys he grew up with ,guys he pushed to get made, later on in life he murdered. he always had a close crew he did not need to get new guys to kill anyone..hope that helps.
Posted By: bronx

Re: Sammy "the bull" - 06/04/17 12:56 PM

franks grandmother on his fathers side was boozie's sister, so frank d would be his second cousin.

Re: Sammy "the bull" - 06/04/17 01:19 PM

Hello BX, tell me was he close to Decicco? What happened to Fappiano?
Posted By: Moe_Tilden

Re: Sammy "the bull" - 06/04/17 01:21 PM

Was Fappiano's nickname Fapper?

Seriously though, cool info Bronx.

Oh okay I get it, thans BX.. There was a lot of Fappiano's in Bath beach. There was a Robert Fappiano born around 1942 living at 68 bay 13th st, got arrested with a firearm the day Frankie d got blown up. Who was he? Where did he stand in the Fappiano/DeCicco family? Was he a made guy in the Gambino's?

Re: Sammy "the bull" - 06/04/17 04:21 PM

Robert Fappiano was Frankie fap's father? And another thing BX, were the DeCicco's related to Eddie Lino and Sal Scala or some of those guys? Thanks

Re: Sammy "the bull" - 06/04/17 07:46 PM

Posted By: alexandarns

Re: Sammy "the bull" - 06/04/17 07:59 PM

Yes he was his father? And no they were not related?

What about that guy Louie DeCicco? How is he related to frankie D? How did he end up with the Bonanno's?
Posted By: bronx

Re: Sammy "the bull" - 06/04/17 09:36 PM

If a 'Sammy the Bull' reality TV show goes ahead, will it even be popular these days? He is old, sick and ugly, and even if he had any news or juicy info from the streets, he'd need to keep his mouth shut about it. All he could do is re-hash old stories about Gotti and Big Paul or his NYC construction industry scams.

At least Gotti could've filled in a few blanks about Neil Dellacroce, who was always a mysterious character. No-one even knows how many he murdered.

A lot of people still like a good Mafia story. Look at the Soprano's and that was somewhat fiction. If there was a show with Gravano, I believe 50% would be non-fiction and 50% would be fiction..Most of the Guys that were on the Street when he was active are either dead,in jail or flipped.

Re: Sammy "the bull" - 06/09/17 02:58 AM

No matter how many people post in comment sections how much of a rat Gravano is and he should die etc...they'll be the first one's in front of the tv waiting to watch !!
Posted By: CrazyPhilly

Re: Sammy "the bull" - 06/09/17 03:20 AM

I agree and I know I would watch. I mean current or not he has to have some good stories to tell that haven't been put out there yet. If it were to happen I'd hope they left Karen off personally.

Re: Sammy "the bull" - 09/21/17 12:36 AM

Wow. Now that's news. It's very doubtful after this time he'll go back to crime but still it's interesting to see what he's got to say. Maybe he'll give some sort of interview sometime, who knows. I'd like to know in what condition is he, health-wise.
Posted By: Aces

Re: Sammy "the bull" - 09/21/17 12:55 AM

Gravano can move back to bensonhurst, eat lunch every day at the vegas diner, and still live a carefree life. No one is going to touch him. He may give a few interviews and even write another book about prison and witness protection and maybe even a reality show.
He was actually released on monday. Supposedly in good health.

You think he could go back to staten island or would someones family members smash him out. There was some cop who said like 1 out of 5 people on staten island is related to someone in oc.

Does the mob have dropout or snitch gangs yet, like the gangs out west, such as the 25's and New Flowers? Sammy could be underboss again.
