He and Pesci also played in a band together in the 70s. The Aristo-Cats.

Pesci got the better of him:



But then Mr. Vincent gets his revenge:



I wonder if Scorsese did that intentionally? Either way, Vincent was a great character actor. RIP. That scene of the old guys struggling to beat up Nicky and Dominic is both comedic and extremely graphic/disturbing.

That scene in Casino scarred me for life. Throwing the dirt on them while they're totally bloodied and still breathing? *Shudder*

And I do recall that either Pesci or Scorcese confirmed the scene was planned as a callback for the actors from Goodfellas.
