HISTORY
|
The Mob sent Guglielmo Olsoni down Miami way to straighten out some
of the gambling connections his family had there. While down there,
he saw, for the first time as this mobster was from Brooklyn, flat
boards with sails on them and wanted to give it a go, so he learned
how to windsurf. He enjoyed it so much he decided to check out locations
in Florida while on his way back to Brooklyn.
Olsoni went to Tampa and met some folks whilst on the water. Those
people told him about a decadent sailing place known as Shell Point.
Though the beach was small and the water not necessarily the best,
the community of windsurfers was insane. They were known to have parties,
disguising them as Regatta’s, twice a year and something called
a Rum and Root beer, further proving to Olsoni that these people were
indeed twisted. He heard about the Festivus celebration, with the
feats of strength and airing of grievances, but when he saw them smoking
fine cigars and partaking of Martinis more delectable then any he
had drunk previously, he knew these were his kind of people and he
wanted to be part of it.
After getting lost several times on his way to this Shell Point, he
finally arrived and discovered the beach was ‘run’ by
another family. They have a Commodore instead of Godfather named Donna
McMahon, no doubt connected to the Irish mob, a money man by the name
of Finwah whose connections cannot be traced, and a host of made men
and women with sinister names like Tina, Linda, Bob, and Mike. Gangsta
names permeate this group, like Digger, Purvey, Rick, Hussies, Rico
(no doubt with Latin mob connections), Sweetgroove and the Walrus.
This obviously was one of those ‘mixed’ families, and
Guglielmo Olsoni wanted to lend his Italian mob flavor to it.
Knowing gambling and knowing the crazed nature of these people, Olsoni
decided to create a casino paradise. He did his research over the
years by taking frequent trips to Italy to speak with the Pope and
the mob bosses on how to get it right. He knew he only had one chance
or else he would be sleeping with the fishes, whom he has become familiar
with when falling off his board. August 7, 2010 will be the grand
opening of VIVA SHELL POINT! There will be gambling, music, racing,
gambling, live singing, drinking, and lots and lots of good looking
people. So come on down to see Guglielmo Olsoni’s masterpiece.
