close encounter with the mob?

[toph99]

on the cruise i was on, there were a bunch of people who i could have sworn came right out of the Godfather. there was the old guy, Tony, Jimmy, who i met and was carrying a suitcase which i didn't get to see the contents of when he opened it to show someone. one of the staff yelled at Tony for some reason, and all of the people there crouded around him, as if protecting him. My friend and i thought this was just far too silly to be true, until i met Jimmi. there is a nightclub on the ship, and you'll get kicked out if you're under 21 and in there after 11pm, so my friend and i sat in the lounge outside talking amongst ourselvs. Out came Jimmy, completely drunk along with 5 or so of his followers. He came up to us and introduced himself, asking why we weren't talking to the girls on the other side(they were 25 and paying no mind to us, so we figured to not even bother ) he was from Chicago, and had an Italian/Chicago accent. he then asked if we wanted to come in the club, but we said that they had already kicked us out twice that night. One of the females then said "come in and sit with jimmy and they won't say a word" we declined as we both were getting tired by that point(it was 3am i believe)

now is this just a freak event, or do you think they actually were part of the mob? even if they weren't, that group was definitly interesting to watch for the week. Nice guy too, bought us some drinks

btw, i know i'm rambling, so just ignore that please

I thought this was going to be about a trip to Tampa.

Was this Jimmey a guy about 5-10 180# curley dark hair down over his ears and what looks like a 5 oclock shadow all the time? One other thing did one of his buddies wear those Hawian shirts (green and pink).
Bleep

he had curly dark brown/white hair, in his late 40's and i'd say he was more 5'7&quot;, but i don't remember much of that night

It'll be a fun story at least, but no way to know.

Yeah the SAME EXACT thing happened to me once...I just knocked the &quot;Jimmy&quot; guy flat with a quick punch to the jaw, and I was revered the rest of the voyage.
