Legendary poker player and all-around crazy ass gambler Amarillo Slim was Pablo Escobar‘s men in Colombia and just a few years months ago was shot at three times in his car truck (because it’s frickin’ Texas) after he told a would-be robber to “fuck off,” more or less, while slamming his truck into reverse.

wow.. these guys are like 40 years behind the times! Slim’s been getting tied up and robbed since the 60′s at least!
seriously. would have been great to see how relaxed he was during the ordeal..like it wasnt a big deal. or maybe he pissed in his pants, i don’t know. He is 78 after all.
**just a few years ago was shot at three times in his car**
is this the same thing as when his truck got shot at a few months ago? (cops still have no suspects on that one either.)
on a totally unrelated note … i bet that amarillo slim can tell some good tall tales.
thanks dan, yeh “years” was a typo and should have known it was a truck since “vehicle” in Texas is synonymous with truck.
