OBITUARY
Vincent LoScalzo
From Tampa Mafia Tours
Vincent LoScalzo, longtime Tampa bar owner, businessman, and the last reported boss of the Tampa Mafia, died yesterday at age 88.
One of the last links to the Trafficante era, Vince was born on May 6, 1937, in Alessandria Della Rocca, Sicily. He was a successful businessman and owned and operated several bars in Tampa, including Rumors Lounge, Imperial Liquors, and the legendary Brothers Lounge. His father, Angelo “the Hammer” LoScalzo, was also a member of the Tampa Mafia.
According to local, state, and federal law enforcement, as well as numerous underworld figures, LoScalzo succeeded Santo Trafficante Jr. when Santo died in March 1987. LoScalzo had a few brushes with the law, but was retired and inactive for many years.
