I mean he was taking pic with everyone, seemed real jovial - very interesting..maybe he is different when he is out in public versus not but even still that gives him no right to treat you the way he did!

I met dan marino in public - now that guys a REAL jerk

Well he is being paid to be nice, and he blew the Rocky Patel job. So I guess it is a lesson learned on his part. But when he came to the shop I worked at he was no on anyones payroll and he was being joe. Everyone in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn NY knows the "real" joe.

Interesting story #2. The scene in the sopranos where he was giving head... He wrote that into the script himself, being it is actually based on true events (not involving him, about a real life mafia figurehead.. no pun intended). Anyway, the producers/directors did not want to work it into the show.

He wrote the part as him receiving the head. Well the producers/directors got so tired of him trying to get it written in they finally caved. He shows up on the set and they turned the tables on him. Instead of him getting head, he is giving head.

At the point he refuses to do the scene. They finally tell him do it, or get written out of the show. He caved in, and he slowly faded away as the butt (no pun intended again, well.. maybe) of a joke on the show.

My current business partner used to own a shop in Brooklyn, NY where he was a semi-regular and he liked to talk. And my business partner (not sure if I should still call him this since business is kind of dead) was the one who helped broker the deal between Rocky and Joe.

Ahhh, thanks for sharing Barry

. Wow, that's nuts that he liked to talk about that. Funny and strange

People change, so I should ad my stories are not meant to cause issues for Joe, Arganese, or anyone involved. I share my stories from the experinece I have with this individual.

We all grow, and learn to act differently. So perhaps Joe has changed since I last saw him about 2+ yrs now.
