Lorenzo’s 64th Birthday

Valencia – June 10th, 2023 marked the day that had many of the Screwie Louie gang meet up at The Zone headquarters to celebrate Lorenzo’s 64th birthday. Food and Bloody Mary’s made their way into everyone’s bloodstream except Michael C. because he was on medication from not using his prostate enough. Lorenzo had a good time with all but was still melancholy that he still had one more year before he could start enjoying his retirement and Medicare. We suggest when next year come around, that Lorenzo not only get Medicare A, but Medicare B, C, and D as well. Surely all his years of partying with the ladies, and men as well, have had to take their toll on his immune system.

Lorenzo was heading out to England the next day and we all wish him a great trip and safe returns.

    Hi Len,

    Screwie Louie was a staple sport at the Smoke Zone in Santa Clarita. Many of the guys were playing years before me. Leon, Pat, Steve, Mike, and Rod, were the Screwie Elders. Pat knows the creator of the game Uncle Louie, which seems to be where Screwie Louie came from.

    Since the Zone can no longer have smoking inside nor outdoors because of the new ice cream shop next door, none of the players go there anymore to play. How can you play the game without a cigar and some whisky!? It’s the end of an era. Now, some players go to Genuine Cigars while others invite friends to play at their homes. One such player is Kirk: https://www.screwielouie.com/kirk/ who will host a game this Friday night 10/1/2024

    I’ve suggested that we use this website to organize some games. I’ve also ran into some players at Garbiz’s (Leon’s brother) smoke shop Woodland Hills. They tell me there are players at the Lonewolf in Santa Monica. It seems there is a lot more players that we all know. Maybe you could send them to this website, and we can figure a way to get players for games. Thanks for reaching out. I don’t make this website publically known on the internet. How did you find us?
