Former The Sopranos star Joseph
R. Gannascoli is cashing in on his TV fame by marketing a new pool cue
under his 'whacked' character's moniker.
Gannascoli's gay character Vito Spatafore was beaten to death with a
billiard cue and now the actor has teamed up with Rockwell Billiards to authorize
the new A Cue to Die For line.
A spokesman for Rockwell says, "The cue is named A Cue to Die For
following in Gannascoli's theme from his cookbook novel, A Meal to Die
For, and the way he was killed."
