Glory Killers

Post Reply New Topic

"Jimmy Balroni. I used to do rides with him. This was back before he started selling dope on the West side, back before he took over the gambling rings. Before all that he had a little gang we called ourselves the Glory Killers, or Glory for short. We would do things called rides, we'd get in a car and rob a string of shops, everything from antique shops to liquor stores. Anyway, a few years into it, the Glory Killer gang was getting to large for Jimmy Balroni to manage so he gave a job to Benny Balducci. Now Benny up until this point was a smart guy. He was supposed to rob Jake's Liquor store, but instead he robbed Jasca Spirits and Wine, the shopkeeper there was not to pleased, took out a shotgun and killed Calvin Higgano, Jimmy Baloni's best friend."

"When Jimmy heard what happened, he went to Benny's house and cuffed him to a radiator. He told him, I was standing right with him. He said "Benny, I'm going to let you live, on one condition. I'm playing the lottery, fifty four million dollar jackpot, the draw is tonight. You are going to tell me the winning numbers or I will shoot you in the gut and let you bleed out until you die." Benny was all terrified crying that he didn't know the numbers, that no one could possible know, but knowing Jimmy wasn't a man to forgive anyone, he knew his only shot was to try to guess the lottery numbers."

The next day Jimmy comes to Benny's house. Benny still cuffed to the radiator. Benny pissed himself he was so scared. He was sure he was going to die. Jimmy walks up to Benny, takes out the lotto ticket, and the clippings from the morning newspaper and he tells Benny and shows him that he won the lottery.

"No f*****g way."

"I s**t you not. Won the fifty four million dollar jackpot. Jimmy told me one time that when people's lives on the line, they tell him s**t they couldn't possibly know."

"Like they're psychic?"

"Yeah, something like that."
