Johnny was great on Resurrection Blvd. Underrated television drama with hot Latinas. Where have you gone, Ruth Livier?

Still not sure how he died, but a pretty decent piece on his life. Guessing CTE is not the cause.

So Tapia's wife paid for a memorial service at the Pit so fans could pay respects. About 7,000 showed up. I had forgotten what a big deal Tapia was to people in the city.

If you like, check out the pictures from the memorial. For those Breaking Bad fans you can see that the look of the show extras aren't much different than the real life characters.
