So i was in s philly killing time before a court hearing downtown and decided to drive to Passyunk and sitting outside of Stogie Joes is Chickie Ciancaglini, Joyj Ciancaglini. Phil Ligambi, And John Bongiovanni( im about 75% sure it was him based on the above pic, but i know dick about him he could be in the can for all i know).. and Joe Pungitore was getting up and walking away as I stipped at the light on 12th
So me bein the mob fanboy i pulled over and creeped on them.. some smokin hot Italian brunette in yoga pants stopped by w her baby and Chickie is tickling and baby talking w the kid.. funny to see this underboss and killer baby talking obviously i know they're regular people... anyway back to my riveting story I noticed about half a block back on Passyunk there was a blue panel van w two guys in it staring at them.. So i circled back around and came down Passyunk again and stopped next to the fan for a second, guy looks at me and hes got the clear earpiece that feds use... as i drive past Stogie Joes again I brought my phone up to take a pic of Chickie in his guinea big wrap around gucci shades lol, he noticee me doin it and mouthed very clearly to me "fuck you"... so his son turns around bc hes sitting w his back to the street and gives me the finger! Lol
I so wish i got this shit on tape it was the coolest moment of my sad life short of the birth of my daughter lol... oh and when I came by the first time Chickie and Ligambi were pointing at the Fed van so they def saw it
So thats my insanely interesting tale of getting told to fuck myself by both the acting underboss and official underboss of the Philly lcn.. perhaps I shoulda shared this whale of a tale in the "real life encounters e wise guys thread", but o well
And before any keyboard gangster says this story is lame or why are u stalking mob guys save it.. these dummies are out in public and were all mob fanboys and girls otherwise why are we here
Dude, why didnt u go in 4 a quick beer or something 7 sit within earshot?...shit, I might have just politely asked chick 4 an autograph & told him my old man was a Keebler (cookie) union guy that was friendly w/ Angie B.,,whats the worst that can happen ,they tell u 2 "scram kid",they r not gonna hurt a civilian....anyways mikey,great story.wish i was w/ u!
Haha Hoodlum my man, i gotta admit i was intimidated to go in..plus i didnt have any cash and I could see those guys at that joint ripping off my cc#.... ill admit tho Chickie looked badass for a what 75 yr old man. Wish u had been w me my dude coulda used ur street connections and it didnt help I was in a full suit looking like a total lawyer/fed
I understand..U as a lawyer must own some serious threads.Chickie would have been wary of that..clothes make a man sometimes,,U & I should go down there sometime & just act normal in street ware..when we are @ the right time (I can get somebody 2 (nurse) 2 look over my aunt,, we will get together via pm.....hope is all well w/ ur daughter...God bless u my man.
Hoodlum my friend thanks for the kind words, my little girls doin much better.. if i get back up in the city id love to go down there not dressed like a lawyer and grab a beer, hope ur aunts hangin in there.. appreciate you havin my back buddy
Blackjack: i called them dummies bc theyre made men in the mob hanging out outside together and whether they're discussing the weather or shylocking being seen together in pics is always used as evidence of an ongoing racketeering conspiracy, so to me thats not smart.. lol if i offended you by calling wise guys "dummies" then my sincerest apologies pal
Biggie- yes you're right I incorrectly wrote Joey, i meant Johnny Chang the one who is still active and allegedly the acting UB. I see your point about Joey Punge and i dont think Hoodlum meant any disrespect havin my back hes good people. I am by no means an oc expert, never claim to be even on Philly and im from here (outside city that is). But the guy walking away looked like Punge based on that video clip of him doin home remodeling from an older mob talk, i could absolutely be wrong and your point is well taken.. i did mis identity that Bongiovanni guy whos dead lol so im no expert
As far as the van i saw being the feds, im pretty positive it was. And like i said I saw Chickie, his son Johnny and Phil Ligambi, so it's entirely possible they're watching a known hangout in S phil(there arent many left) where there was the UB, acting UB, and Phil Ligambi is made man and who know maybe a skipper. But regardless I thought id report what i saw bc to a mob geek like me whos never had any real interraction w wiseguys it was an interesting little story killing time on a weekday, if ya doubt my story or whatever idk what to tell ya
