A TRUE story about Rick Latona ... great friend or fucking foe?
 

A while back Rick came out to LA and we were out partying in Santa Monica .. I was a belligerent drunk having a cigg outside a club while Rick was inside with two hotties, one on each lap. While I was outside 4 or 5 bouncers were plotting to beat my ass and then throw me into the alley. Another friend saw the drama escalating and went inside to tell Rick. At this same moment, Rick was witnessing these two babes making out on his lap. Apparently they were also begging Rick for all three of them to go back to the hotel for some privacy .. anyway, after hearing about the bullshit outside, and without *any* hesitation, Rick threw the girls off his lap and ran outside .. although easily out numbered, Rick stood by me threatening to murder mother fuckers if they laid a finger on me .. I found out about all of this the next morning. I also found out that Rick lost his 3 some opportunity due to saving my ass.

Rick, you don't need to explain yourself to these noobs/surfers .. anybody who is somebody knows what the fuck is going on .. see you in FL :thumbsup

By the way, signup to CJBUCKS - http://www.cjbucks.com - They'll do anything to make you the most money ....

REAL NIGGAZ DO REAL SHIT

:)

People are just jealous of Rick's wealth :2 cents:

I love you 2 guys....hope to see you both here at Internext.

:thumbsup

Not everybody here is a noob or a surfer...Some people are just more sensitive about animals than others..I know if anybody fucked with my cat I seriously would track them down and fucking torch them.no question about it.

you were drunk?:winkwink:

In a way it's kind of refreshing though isn't it?


Sometimes all the ass kissing of the industry 'players' gets old

:thumbsup :thumbsup good shit!!!!

I just find this all so amusing.... 99% of these guys all over Rick don't even have a clue who he is, and yet make all these assumptions and stuff.

It's been an entertaining day.

Oh, and that's one hell of a cool thing to say Fabian. It's good to see people shed light on things from a real perspective.

Thank you.

True enough, but since when did GFY members grow any morals?

Now that is a great friend. Someone you want by your side at all times. :thumbsup

was about to say the same thing..
:thumbsup

:winkwink:

My cat goes outside and although I have never been in a fight in a couple of decades, I had a confrontation with a dog owner a couple of months ago who let their two big dogs run free in the alley and threatened to torch their house while they are sleeping if my cat turns up dead one day.

Holy fuck..No more threads with rick latona please..Rick u must feel like a damn celeb since people make threads like these.

:glugglug :1orglaugh :thumbsup

now thats what'd id call a true friend
i dont know anyone who'd give up a 3some for me :(

Hahahahaha.....I remember that!!!! Rick is a great guy 110% :thumbsup

Best reply, ever.:1orglaugh

Nice to hear.

:thumbsup

That's a great story Fabian it reminds the time in Vancouver.

There was Me, Scooter, Whitney, Vooodo, grimshawn, Rick, Odie,WISEMAN and few other getting drunk at this lil hole in wall pub called the Cambie.

We were drinking at this cheap draft beer and doin a ton of Jager shots. We were getting pretty fucked up then we decided to go play pool. So Rick was talking to some waitress and had his back tunrned while GrimShawn decides to start a fake fight with bouncer .... Rick sees it out of the corner of his eye with out hesitation right drops what's he's doin grabs his pool cue and was about WACK THE GUY OVER THE MELLON when at the last minute Grim Pulled away and made Rick aware that is was fake.

Rick tottaly won me over at that point.

HE's that kinda guy.

:thumbsup

Rick is fucking super famous. I lost count of how many threads today has been about him.

GO Rick, its your birthday.:Graucho

The only weird thing is that both stories have me being violent. :angel

Thanks guys.

Looking forward spending some time in Miami with you again Rick.
We had a great time in Atlanta!

:thumbsup

It was back in November at the internext convention... I remember 2 things:

I finally met Lensman after doing business with him for 3 years and he introduced me to everyone he saw as "the best agent porn ever saw" needless to say, that was quite a compliment considering the source.

And I remember Rick Latona - who turned me down for a job, but bought me lunch anyways ( good thing cuz I was hungry & flat broke) and laughed hysterically at my questioning what kind of mountain of a man his sales rep was being that he has such a deep dark voice.

Having said that... I'm going to pick some fights at FL internext and I want Rick to stick up for me with a pool que, OK?

Rick is a good guy with a crazy site. Don't get the two confused.
Rick is good as gold. :thumbsup

Ok, Rick is crazy too, but his site is crazier. :1orglaugh

Sounds like Internext could be pretty violent this time. Think I?ll duck.

If I need help knocking anyone out it would be one big bad-ass mofo too tall to duck.

I wish I was the first here to stand behind Rick Latona. He has been a good friend to me, and I trust him.

I've got tons of personal stories of Rick standing up for me and for his other friends. I think everyone would be better off if there were more of that to go around.

Exactly, end of thread.

Ok I know this is a stupid question to ask, but does anyone have a picture of Rick? Or can you find it on Fubar please..

I've only met one person from CJ and he was super cool, but I forget his name. It was the one guy in the Dugmor/Panama/Hooker thread that was in the 3 way with Dugmor. Is that Rick?

I'm sooo bad with names... I never ever ever forget a face (photographic memory)...but names I suck at.

These Rick stories sound cool and I'm just wondering if I'm met him yet.

Thanks in advace :thumbsup

LOL, that would be Marc the guy that posted the cat video and actually runs the site. The guy that I'm taking the heat for! I'm the good looking guy in the middle of this pic:

Yeah, anything. :helpme

<--- what he said


And from the limited business i i've done with rick i still see him as a stand up guy compared to a lot of people in this biz and also compared to people in general.

Keep up the good work Rick :thumbsup

Thanks for posting Rick. Nope, don't think I've met you yet. You kinda resemble RB from Maxcash, lol.

:thumbsup

:thumbsup :thumbsup nice story.

good friend you got in there

and ???

Respect

Respectah.

true:Graucho

what NO drama ?

:rasta

Like with every person and relationships they have some will tell you the person in question is one way, and others the opposite. It's really a matter of taking everything with a grain of salt and deciding yourself.

Cheers,

The only way you can get loyalty from someone is to earn it. You can't bullshit it or buy it. I try to be there for people so they will be there for me. It's a back and forth thing. I see that there are many people on GFY who don't understand this point.

As well as a ladies man :Graucho

haha true .. I'll keep the other stories for Rick & myself
