Mafia Boss Arrested While Playing Godfather Xbox Game
There have been plenty of “mafia” or “mobster” related games available
these days: on gaming consoles, on mobile devices and (especially) on
social networks. It kinda makes you wonder what real mobsters think of
them all. Well, at least in one case, we have an idea. Glyn Moody
points us to the news that Gerlandino Messina, described as “Sicily’s
no.2 boss,” was arrested last weekend and when police showed up to
take him away, he was playing The Godfather game on his Xbox. The
game, of course, is based on the movie of the same name and is all
about the mafia. You see, in the virtual world, you don’t actually go
to jail (or get shot). Seems safer.
