[@zackgraymes3665]

@@jbot91 Patsy was about to get his revenge on tony but abandoned the idea, pissing in his pool instead. I'm pretty sure Patsy got over it by the time meadow was marrying his son. Butch DeConcini however was a hypocritical fuck from the beginning, Lupertazzis were winning the war. They gave out Phil Leotardo so he could take the place. And while he was at it, whacked Tony that he always wanted to whack. To me, it's obvious Tony died. The fade to black is Tony's stream of consciousness shutting down. Probably because of a bullet to the head.
