Re: Sammy gravano making a fool of himself
I will say the latest video where Sammy talks about him and Vic Orena having a sitdown over Joe Bilotti was very interesting. I look forward to more stories like these and not the well versed tale of the Castellano hit...

Re: Sammy gravano making a fool of himself
Concur. These never before told stories are great. Joe Bilotti gives Pate a beatdown, Orena asks Gotti for Bilottis life, Sammy investigates and then wins the sitdown with the Colombos, saving Bilotti’s life. (Sammy likes to stress the fact he saved Joe Bilottis life a few times)Browniety86 wrote: ↑Fri Mar 19, 2021 6:10 am I will say the latest video where Sammy talks about him and Vic Orena having a sitdown over Joe Bilotti was very interesting.

Re: Sammy gravano making a fool of himself
Yeah say what you want about Sammy but his production team plus his story telling blows everything else out of the water when it comes to these ex wiseguys telling their stories. And I enjoy Pennisi’s show because he’s recent and for the most part seems like a straight shooter. But Sammy pretty much had a front row seat for the tail end of Cosa Nostra’s peak in the US. Jimmy Colandra just posted a picture of the two of them on IG having a meal together. Not sure if that means they have something in the works or if they had a prior relationship.

Re: Sammy gravano making a fool of himself
This is all in his book UnderBoss. Hes just going over those stories. Not saying its a bad thing. But this was all read years ago. Maybe he already forgot everythkng he was going to say.

Re: Sammy gravano making a fool of himself
Two more podcasts and we'll finally get to Keyes gettin the clip...
Re: Sammy gravano making a fool of himself
hes changing his fucking stories around.In underboss he said Fiala went into the middle of the dance floor and girls shaved his head and sammy was shocked.Now in his podcast he said he had prior knowledge to his head being shaved.I know its a little lie but if he will lie for such an insignificant detail imagine when he starts talking about the castelano hit and the bigger stories like him ratting and eventually hes going to have to talk about Arizona
Re: Sammy gravano making a fool of himself
I haven't watched many of Gravano's videos, but from what I saw it's obvious he's trying to portray himself as a bigger and smarter gangster than he was in his early years. I'm interested in how he'll spin the informant part this time around.

Re: Sammy gravano making a fool of himself
Gravano was known as a tough guy in the streets and he was respected up until he cooperated I mean he was a captain then A consigliere then underboss. There’s a reason why the guy the team wanted him to help take out Paul because Sammy could’ve just as easily stayed with Paul.

Re: Sammy gravano making a fool of himself
Yeah, which makes it even more hilarious why he has to 'enhance' the truth about himself further. Unless Big Joe makes a podcast, Gravano will remain the biggest informant with internet presence for the time being no matter what. As somebody pointed out earlier in this thread, 90% of his content related to his time in the mafia is a repeat of what he has been saying for the past 30 years. The same goes for Franzese and some others.Extortion wrote: ↑Sat Mar 27, 2021 10:18 amGravano was known as a tough guy in the streets and he was respected up until he cooperated I mean he was a captain then A consigliere then underboss.
