Joey Vento, owner of Geno's died today.

Joey Vento, the owner of Geno's Steaks of South Philly died earlier today.
A longstanding feud between them and their across the street neighbor Pat's Steaks has famously been existing since the 1960's. Though he was known as a controversial guy during his life, I really liked his Cheesesteaks.

In fact... (see pictures below)

Apparently he had just gotten through a successful round of cancer treatment, but a massive (sudden) heart attack was what killed him.

RIP Joey Vento.
