    This is very sad news. Jim was such a nice guy. I hate to hear about things like this. I'm keeping my fingers crossed the investigation turns up something.

    If you don't know, "Rizzolo" is one of the local mafia guys. He is quite the evil lunatic too. He used to stand outside the strip club watching his goons beat up people laughing like a mad man. Sic f'k.

    No kidding right :)
    Hopefully we'll hear an update soon. I met this guy, my father and him were friends. He was a really nice guy, just living his life and trying to do what he loved, enjoy being alive. He was quite brave for what he did, standing up to his "neighbor" and all.

    WOW, right away I thought of Buffalo JIm from Las Vegas, very sad.

    For those that dont know most of the story it is very interesting, and Buffalo Jim never backed down from anyone. There was a great article in LV Weekly about a year ago about him and his battles with Crazy Horse before they got shut down.
    I was a normal in LV for a few years I got involved in following the stories and reading its history by knowing a few of the girls that worked in the industry. Its very very interesting the battles Jim was involved in to say the least.

    Sad- R.I.P. Buffalo Jim.
