About Johnny Avello
I'm a friend of Johnny Avello's brother-in-law. My friend told me for years that when I was up on the Strip I should stop by and say hello to Johnny. I didn't due it for years because he's a Casino exec and I'm just an aspiring degenerate. But one Tuesday when I was up there and the Strip was dead I stopped by the Bally's book and asked the lone person working if Johnny Avello was busy. She calls up and in 30 seconds he comes down and talks to me for 15 minutes like he's known me for years. He even offered to "call a gal at Caesar's" to get me tickets for the sold out show. You rarely run into such a genuinely good guy.
BTW, here's a bobble head of Johnny.
